5 Tips For A Bankruptcy Reorganization Plan
A Sacramento bankruptcy attorney provides 5 Tips For A Bankruptcy Reorganization Plan
Bankruptcy Tip 1.
A reorganization plan will require the advice and direction of a competent attorney. Fees will be required. The first tip is to save for attorney fees and costs. A good attorney is worth it. Bargain shopping for bankruptcy is not a good idea.
Bankruptcy Tip 2.
Gather up all financial records like pay statements and bills. Disclosure is key in bankruptcy. Your income will determine whether you qualify for a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Bills will determine what gets restructured and what gets wiped out.
Bankruptcy Tip 3.
Find your identifying information such as your driver’s license and social security card. They will be needed to present to your bankruptcy trustee after you file.
Bankruptcy Tip 4.
Have an open mind and listen to your attorney. Some of the advice that your attorney gives may be information about the requirements of bankruptcy or may be consistent with fair treatment given to creditors. For example, payments to family members within one year of filing are payments that can be avoided by the trustee and used to pay your creditors in an equal manner. Your chapter 13 may require you to pay your car payment to the trustee instead of the car lender. The attorney can’t do anything about these rules.
Bankruptcy Tip 5.
Maintain communication with your bankruptcy attorney’s office. Make sure that your bankruptcy attorney knows where you are during the pendency of your bankruptcy. Moving and switching phone numbers during or right before you file is not a good idea. The information contained in your bankruptcy may require further investigation and follow up.
