What worse bankruptcy or debt relief?

Which is better repossession or bankruptcy?
Better is not the best word, but a chapter 7 could wipe out the car debt and your other debt. If you just to the repo - they can still come after you for the 4500 dollar difference if they sell it for only 4k (most likely it will be sold for 2k or so) which would make the debt higher. Both will hurt your credit so if you are going to take the hit, I recommend you get rid of all of the debt and have some money to pay for things you need. Of course going bankrupt takes money too! Bankruptcy means that you will lose your home, as does repossession. The only way to stop either is to start repaying your debts and there are many financial solutions companies out there which could help. If you have mortgage arrears then speak to your mortgage lender ASAP, you may be able to come up with a repayment plan to repay your mortgage arrears along with your future mortgage payments. It is always important that you take action sooner rather than later so that your bankruptcy or repossession can be stopped.
One spouse is on the mortgage and wants to claim bankruptcy. The other spouse's name is on the deed. What happens when the first files for bankruptcy?
It sounds like your name was on the deed, you mortgaged the property then you conveyed it to your spouse thinking to effect a change in ownership free of the mortgage. You can't do that.A conveyance to defraud your creditor will be "undone" by the court. Also, if you did transfer ownership subsequent to granting a mortgage the transfer is subject to that mortgage. Your bankruptcy won't simply wipe out your mortgage and make the property free and clear since you transferred it to your spouse. In addition, the bank can demand payment in full under the "due on transfer" clause in the mortgage. You have a tangled web and you should consult with an attorney who specializes in bankruptcy.It sounds like your name was on the deed, you mortgaged the property then you conveyed it to your spouse thinking to effect a change in ownership free of the mortgage.

What is a Chapter 20?
As an unknown individual at the Doney & Associates law firm surmised, "there is no real Chapter 20, but we bankruptcy attorneys amuse ourselves by proving that we can add." A Chapter 20 is when you file a Chapter 13 right after a Chapter 7. One reason some people do this is because you cannot stop a home foreclosure with a Chapter 7, but you cannot file a Chapter 13 if your unsecured debt exceeds a certain dollar amount. So, if someone's home is being foreclosed but their unsecured debt amount exceeds the limit for a Chapter 13, those persons may file a Chapter 7 and wipe out the unsecured debt, then file a Chapter 13 and stop the home foreclosure. Some Courts frown on Chapter 20's since they see it as an unfair manipulation of the bankruptcy code.
