How Bankruptcy Will Affect Your Property and Assets

One of the first questions asked by individuals considering bankruptcy is, "will I be able to keep my home and other assets?" The first consideration is what type of bankruptcy is being filed. In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the debtor generally keeps of all of his or her property.  In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, however, whether the debtor retains ownership of property depends on the specifics of each situation, and application of both federal bankruptcy law as well as state law. The bankruptcy process is complex and detail-oriented, and should not be taken on alone. I am an experienced bankruptcy attorney who has been helping clients navigate through the confusing bankruptcy process for over twenty years.
