I would like to know if I can go bankrupt under the new law. I am a single mother with one daughter.?
Answer:
It depends on a lot of items which type of bankruptcy you can claim. Just remember that your credit history will be trashed for a long time. I filed for Bankruptcy almost four years ago and still have trouble getting credit when I need it. I would recommend that you see a bankruptcy lawyer and explain your situation to him and he can tell you everything that you need to know.
It depends on the kind of bankruptcy you go for. You don't need to make payments for all kinds. You can have your debts wiped clean, although it will affect your credit for 10 years. The best advice I can give you is gather up information on everything you owe and go see an attorney that specializes in bankruptcy. And the first thing he will tell you if he takes your case is to stop paying all the bills right now.
Bankrupsty is reallly bad and you will have bad credit for the next 7-10 years which will put you in a bad financial status. How about calling a creidt counseling service? Credit counseling is not as servere as bankruptsy but it may help you consolidate your bills.
In the near future so you won't keep making the same financial mistake why not change careers or go to school to get a career so you can make more money? Or how about getting into sales or real estate? That is a great field that you can make an unlimited about of money in. The main thing you need is more money so I would focus on making more money and spending less so that means you would have to leave within your means.
There are some credit managing companies which will negotiate with your lenders on your behalf
They will make them forgive 50% of the loan, stop the interest charges and consolidate all payments into one, monthly. They will also add their own charges into that monthly payment, but still, you will be far better off. Also you will not have a bad credit report because everything is by agreement. Worth exploring this.
Only go for bankruptcy if you are sure you can do without any credit for 8-10 years.
you have to make under 30,000 a year you may qualify contact a bankrupt attorney.. many give free advise.. you may just want to turn your car over to the bank..
Sorry this is harsh.
