WHO is still taking money from your check? and, for WHAT purpose is the money being garnished? If it is for IRS liens, child support, or some other court ordered payment, those are not affected by bankruptcy filings.

When converting from a chapter 13 to a 7 do you still have to submit payments to the trustee during that time?

# I just converted. Once you convert and the papers are filed they will close your chpt. 13 and if there is any money left in that account they will send you a check. My employer kept taking money out of my check until they received a letter from the trustee telling them not to. They paid me back the 3 weeks difference. Hope this helps.

Can you keep a class actionlawsuit amount of money after filling chapter 7. 7 years ago?

If you were part of a class action lawsuit when you filed the chapter 7, it should have been disclosed in Schedule B, Par. 21 and the Statement of Financial Affairs, Par. 4. The trustee should have abandoned his/her claim or it should have been exempted as to any likely amount. Check with the lawyer who filed your bankruptcy or, if s/he is not available, another bankruptcy lawyer in the area.

Will your attorney receive his portion of an injury liability case even though you filed chapter 7 bankruptcy?

depends on the length of time. was the injury cas before the filing or after.sometimes it takes a long time to get the money. if the case was before you filed then you have to pay the lawyer. the two also have different situations.if he represents you in a case due to his services, he gets the money. the chapter 7 bankruptcy has to do with outstanding bills occured. they are two different matters. but they can garnish any wages or income. so the lawyer will get his cut first. i worked for lawyers and the check goes there first.so there is no way around them.
