Will I go to Bankruptcy court?
A Sacramento bankruptcy attorney answers this common debtor concern: Will I go to Bankruptcy court?
Assuming An Attorney Filed Your Case, Bankruptcy Court Is Required In The Following Situations:
• Reaffirmations entered into without the approval of your attorney.
In a Chapter 7, a lender with a security interest in your property will require a reaffirmation agreement. Security interests are created for collateral such as cars, gyms, furniture, etc… If you’ve chosen the option to reaffirm then the lender will send your attorney a reaffirmation agreement. Most attorneys do not like reaffirmation agreements because it cuts against the reason for filing for bankruptcy – getting rid of your debt forever. If the attorney does not sign it then they will send the reaffirmation agreement to you to fill out. If you submit the agreement to the lender they will file it and the Court will set a reaffirmation agreement to determine whether the agreement is in your best interest.
There may be other court hearings but those require the attorney’s presence. Attendance is optional by the client.
