I am an auto mechanic and I need to file for chapter 7 bankruptcy. Will I lose my work tools if I file?
You’re required to list all assets when you file for bankruptcy. You take an oath with the court saying you’re telling the truth. If you don’t have a paper trail that follows the tools (such as purchasing with some sort of loan) than hide them in a friend’s garage and don’t list them as assets, that is at least what I would do. If the court knows you have them as an asset you may be required to liquidate them. Talk to a lawyer.
. . . situations, other than bankruptcy, would you have (or need) protection from creditors?
Steven F is wrong. Creditors CAN seize IRAs, depending on the circumstances:
- how much is in the IRA
- what state law says
- whre did the money come from, a 401k rollover or your own contributions?
The law passed after the 2005 Supreme Court ruling did not address all of these, so they are up for litigation. And are being litigated right now. The exceptions might not affect many people, but they exist.
So: bankruptcy, lawsuits. And yes, the IRS can seize your IRA.

what is going to happen if gm files bankruptcy, what happens to my gmac auto loan?
It will just be serviced by another lender.
GM isn’t going to file complete bankruptcy. They will probably file to just reorganize and get their financial house in order. This in no way will affect you and you paying your loan. You don’t just suddenly have no loan if they file bankruptcy.
How much does it cost to file chapter 7 bankruptcy in California?
The filing fee (nationwide, not just CA) for Ch 7 bankruptcy is $299. You can expect your attorney fees to be in the range of $1500 – $2000 in California. Your bankruptcy attorney does far more than "fill out forms."
You can hire a non-attorney form-filling-out service for $300 – $600 but if "filling out forms" is all you want (NO legal advice can legally be given by "form-filling-out" services) you can do that yourself for free (not recommended, but some have done it and managed not to get their cases dismissed for common pro se filing errors).
I heard a rumor today that Avon cosmetics is going bankrupt. Is it true?
i hadn;t heard that, I dont; see how it could be true due to their low overhead?

 The average American knows very little about bankruptcy. Most people probably understand very generally that a bankruptcy can serve to eliminate debt and offer a âfresh startâ â but often know very little beyond this basic concept. Some of the information you might have heard is correct, but much of it is not. Misconceptions have become even more widespread after the passage of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 (BAPCPA). The purpose of this article is to dispel some of the most common bankruptcy myths.
Myth: Bankruptcy relief is no longer available.
Untrue. Almost all of the relief formerly available through bankruptcy survives in today’s bankruptcy code. The bankruptcy filing process is a little more complicated â and it can therefore be more difficult to find a qualified attorney â but the end result of a discharge of debts (and with that discharge the hoped-for âfresh startâ) is still entirely attainable.
 Myth: People who file for bankruptcy can’t get credit for 10 years.
Entirely untrue. Chapter 7 filers invariably receive unsolicited credit card offers after they get their discharge. The rates might not be quite as favorable as rates offered to others with perfect credit, but credit is undoubtedly available. The myth probably stems from the fact that the Fair Credit Reporting Act allows the reporting of a bankruptcy filing for 10 years. That much is true, but has no direct bearing on how quickly after bankruptcy one can obtain credit. Myth: Filing for bankruptcy is an embarrassment, or is somehow indicative of personal or moral failure. Untrue and unfair. The vast majority of bankruptcy filings stem from one or more of the following, all of which are beyond the debtorâs control : Loss of income resulting from layoff or failed self-employment business, large medical expenses resulting from injury or illness, divorce or separation, and high interest rates and/or penalties on credit cards resulting from the imposition of a âUniversal defaultâ clause. (âUniversal defaultâ is the term for a practice in the financial services industry whereby a particular lender may change the terms of a loan from the normal terms to the âdefault termsâ when that lender learns that their customer has defaulted with another lender, even though the customer has not defaulted with the first lender.) This invariably means a drastic rate increase which, in combination with one of the other hardship factors, leads inevitably in turn to more late or insufficient payments, triggering a âsnowballâ effect. bankruptcy laws were specifically designed to prevent honest debtors, who have been faced with these difficult or hardship circumstances, from being mercilessly harassed by creditors for accounts the debtor simply has no possible way of repaying. It should be no negative reflection on a personâs character for simply availing himself of laws that were written for these very reasons and situations.
Myth:Â Even if I file for bankruptcy, creditors can still harsss me and my family.
Completely false. Bankruptcy law provides for âautomatic stayâ protection; that is, as soon as you file for bankruptcy a hold is put on all your outstanding debts and any creditor attempts to collect those debts. The law prohibits any creditor attempt to collect on or even contact the debtor in regard to a debt. If a creditor does not follow the rules, the debtor may have a cause of action against the creditor for âpunitive damages,â whereby a bankruptcy judge could actually punish a creditor with stiff fines and penalties for not following the procedures set out in the bankruptcy code. Whether a debtor has a cause of action against a creditor should be left to an attorney to answer. What is certain, however, is that the moment you file for bankruptcy, creditors must leave you alone or suffer the consequences.
Myth: If I file for bankruptcy, I will have to forfeit some or all of my assets.
For the vast majority of filers, this is not the case. Under chapter 7, you may claim certain of your property as exempt under federal law (for example the $10,775 exemption limit for household goods, furnishings, and appliances, and the $1,350 exemption limit for jewelry). A trustee may have the right to take possession of and sell the remaining property that is not exempt and use the sale proceeds to pay your creditors. In the vast majority of cases, however, the debtor has no assets above these statutory exemption limits, meaning that the debtor may “exempt”, and therefore keep, all of his assets.
Myth: Filing for bankruptcy could cost you your job.
False. Specifically, federal law (U.S.C. Sec. 525) prohibits any employer from discriminating against you because you filed bankruptcy. State laws may provide additional protection for filers, as often do union employment contract clauses.
Myth: Bankruptcy costs our society too much.
Credit card issuers are quite profitable and, industry-wide, boast some of the highest profit margins in the corporate sector. This is despite the relatively small percentage of loans discharged in bankruptcy, a percentage that is factored into their budgets and compensated for by the percentage rates they charge. Our economy has, overall, benefited enormously by the purchasing power facilitated by credit â one need only consider the widespread economistsâ predictions of pervasive and lasting harm to the American economy should the ongoing subprime mortgage crisis be allowed to cause credit to âdry upâ. And again, the pricing of credit takes into account that not everyone will be able to repay. The “$400 per family bankruptcy tax” bandied about in Congress was a number picked out of the air by a bank lobbyist â no surprise there â who made an arithmetic error in the process.
Myth: Filing bankruptcy causes family trouble and divorce.Â
Wrong. Bankruptcy eliminates debt, which in turn cannot help but eliminate financial stress. Filing bankruptcy is the solution to the problem, not an additional problem. Although making the decision to file bankruptcy might be a difficult one, the relief provided will lift a huge weight off of you and your spouse. The removal of financial stress will in all likelihood help your relationship.
