****you can have a car in your name as long as the retail value in $500.00 or less. I know this because I just filed and my lawyer just told me that****
Second answer: This is serious business. You really should check with a local lawyer - I think that Bankruptcy is governed by Federal law, but different states may have additional protections for their residents. As far as I know, you can get a car if you need one, as long as it isn't a Maserati or a Porsche, without looking as if you're abusing the bankruptcy code. (A finding of abuse will probably mean denial of bankruptcy relief).
Any leftover debt from that car repossession can be put in your bankruptcy petition..so if you owed $12k and the bank sold it for $6k..then you can file bankruptcy on the remaining $6k.
If you wreck your car after filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy you can file it on your insurance. You can then replace your car based on the bankruptcy order.
No, because the co-signor is not file a bankruptcy with you and the creditor will go after the co-signor instead of you.
Having a car or other item repossessed does not mean anyone has to file for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is to protect you from creditors and should be sought if you owe more than your net worth and have no reasonable prospect of being able to pay what you owe.
Of course, it won't legally be your car however.
If you file bankruptcy and you have not been discharged the car that you buy can be used to finance it.
Can you file bankruptcy if you caused a car accident?
any car you have it has to be added to your bankruptcy but you get to keep it, as long as you don't go out and buy a brand new car then file , that wont work they wont put that on you will have to pay for it
In GA Can you get your car back after a repossession if you file chapter 13 bankruptcy
must be yours for two years
Yes, you can lose a car if you file for bankruptcy, but it depends on several factors, including the type of bankruptcy you file and the value of the car. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, non-exempt assets may be sold to repay creditors, which could include your car if it's not protected by exemptions. However, if you file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you may be able to keep your car by restructuring your debt and making payments over time. Always consult with a bankruptcy attorney to understand your specific situation and options.
