I just filled Chapter 7 and had 341 meeting and car offers and credit card offers in the mail are just crazy, i believe the system won't you to be in debt forever, but I refuse to go back to that nightmare
@@AscendFinance well you won't be able to go in back into debt that fast, don't choose some of the thirsty offers that come in the mail specially car deals and high interest credit card deals,, it is August now I filed in April in my bankruptcy has been discharged, but always remember after it has been discharged that's when the challenge really start because you become a cash-only type person which could be very challenging
Wow!, I feel so empowered! I learned a so much from your channel about Bankruptcy . I learned that, " I could do it myself." The calculator, is a very useful tool also. Thank you so much for being here.
@@luvuexpressions5742 good luck with doing it yourself, my only problem with doing it myself I just didn't want to make any mistakes I had a very good attorney that not only knew the system but he was able to file my chapter 7 no assets, quickly and it was discharged quickly and that is due to the fact that he was already connected to the court system
Why was I told by the attorney it’s not up to me, it’s up to my income and I have to file what he says I need to file?? My income varies a lot, I have my base pay but also been working a lot of overtime to get myself out of debt but as times change, cost went up, I’m gaining more debt. Thus, the need for bankruptcy. I feel it should be based on base income without overtime because overtime is not guaranteed!

8.7.2024 Hello, Does bankruptcy help if already is being sued? Will it also stop an already lawsuit? Lastly, what about traffic tickets, does it help with those too?
It may be able to help with an unsecured debt lawsuit and stop the proceedings. The traffic tickets question would be a great question for an attorney, and I can get you linked up for a free consultation with one if helpful at 833-272-3631. Thanks!
Recently my sister set me up after renting her house. I had a family dispute with my parents and she tried to make me suffer for taking my son and I out of their life. I recently just purchased a house on first buyers loan and I have a car with minus equity I don't own anything and she's suing me multiple times. Filing bankruptcy for chapter 7 is what I'm guessing I should do. The house payment in car payment along with all the bills and in her suing me is way too much for me to pay alone. Plus she doesn't actually deserve any money because she set me up with no receipts for a while so she could go back on rent and charge me everything. She's a multi-millionaire and purposely just wants to hurt me for reasons that are not money related. What would you suggest the best path be?
My car is worth much less than my loan for the car because I had lost equity on a trade-in. The house I've only paid 4 months payments and haven't missed any. I don't believe I've gained any equity in the home. I do not own any other assets.
I am so sorry for your situation. I cannot provide legal advice, but I can get you access to an attorney who serves your area that can help. Can you call me/us at 833-272-3631 if you're interested to get connected?
But what if you file chapter 7 but don’t want your mortgage debt included? Can I still lose my house? My house payments are and have always been on time. Also I completely own my car. I just need help with all the credit card debt. I am trying to get help for my spending to deal with stress and it put me in a really hard place.
Unfortunately you won't be able to choose what is disclosed in a bankruptcy filing. It may be helpful to chat with a local attorney to have them review the exemptions in your state for your house and cars to see if you can keep the the property in the filing. If you need help finding a reputable local attorney shoot us a text at 833 272 3631 and we can connect you to one!
If i filed a chapter 7 and we have a mobile home but its only in my wifes name and she doesnt use my last name .is our property subject for liquidation just to pay the debt collectors?
Thank you for your video, it helps me to understand more. I watch some other video from different author about bad thing to avoid to do before file Ch7. But there is no video about California. Is it anything we did will get fail to discharge in Ch7 ? Such as we will lose the protection of 401K or IRA if the creditors can apply the exemption…..
Hey Johnny, thanks for the message. I see our scheduled call today on my calendar, so let’s discuss then and answer all your questions. Talk to you soon! -Ben
I moved to California from Chicago to open a restaurant ,I did open the restaurant with my wife with a LLC I am in a big financial mess now like around 150k If I apply for chapter 7 will I be able to lose my restaurant business ?
I am so sorry to hear that things are not going as planned. You may be at risk of losing the restaurant, although it may depend on the value. You'd want to get this confirmed with a local attorney. You can call or text my team at 833-272-3631 and we can help you connected with someone locally.
Thanks for the question! You actually can file individually, sometimes people will do that if they do not have any joint accounts. However, they still look at the total household income to determine if you qualify for a Chapter 7, even if you file individually.
Amazing video with simple explanations. I am evaluating bankruptcy due to a few rough years that put me way behind on a lot of debt. I have only talked to one local attorney and they said the chapter 13 fee was $6500. Does that sound high? Also, I have a rental property and my home which they told me had too much equity for a chapter 7. Does this mean I really only have a choice of a 13 if I want to keep them? Lastly, I used to make over $150k it’s been a struggle to get back to that level due to some MH challenges…but I believe I’m close to getting a high paying job again. What happens with my debts if I get a high paying job or a business I’m working on takes off?
I'm sorry for the delay. The Chapter 13 attorney fee is generally a no look fee, which basically means that many people will charge the same amount regardless of where in the district. Would you be able to call at 833-272-3631? I'd like to understand more context.
I'm sorry to hear about the debt collection lawsuit. Thanks for context about SSDI, that's helpful as you may be judgment proof (although you still may want to do something). Would you be able to text or call us at 833-272-3631? Or if it's easier, you can schedule a quick complimentary 15 minute call her to go through options: calendly.com/ascnd/call - Thanks, chat soon. -Ben
Hey Stephen, thanks for the note. This may be a good question for a local attorney in a free phone consultation. Happy to get that setup for you as we have a National bk attorney network at 833-272-3631 (text or call) or you can just google bankruptcy attorneys in your area, and I like to read reviews lowest descending.
Does filing for bankruptcy affect my renting? I currently rent an apartment in NJ, rent is always paid on time, 0 issues, i am struggling with personal loan/credit card debt and considering these options. Does it affect a car I make payments on?
Hi! Great questions. As long as you are current on your rent then it shouldn't be a problem, but if you needed to rent a new space then it may be challenging, it would likely depend on the landlord. As for a car in a chapter 7, the attorney may be able to reaffirm the loan so you can continue paying on it after you file. If you have other questions, give us a call at 833-272-3631!
I have credit card debt, a car lease and a motorcycle, lost my job and now I’m making less income, I’m thinking about chapter 7, my concern is if I get to keep at least my car lease to commute, and will that affect my apartment lease/rent?
Hey Jose, great questions! I am so sorry to hear you are going through all of that, it sounds stressful. If you were to file a chapter 7, most of the time they may reaffirm your car loan so you can continue paying on it- just confirm with an attorney. When you file bankruptcy, it should not affect your current rent, but it could affect if you tried to rent elsewhere.
Hola nesecito ayuda pero mi temor más grande es perder mi casa? Y mis deudas no las puedo pagar, obviamente el capítulo 7 tanto el 13 tienen sus pros y sus contras. Pero me encantaría que me aconsejaras lo único que tengo de más valor es mi casa. Y en este caso me conviene más el capítulo 13!
¡Oye, gracias por la pregunta! En un capítulo 7, dependerá de cuánto valor líquido haya en la vivienda y cuál sea la exención estatal para ver si su casa puede protegerse. En el capítulo 13, brinda protección total de activos para que su casa no esté en riesgo. Si tiene alguna otra pregunta, llámenos al 833-272-3631.
Is there anyway to force the bank into lengthening the term of the loan without doing a bankruptcy? I have no other debts except for one he locked that I couldn’t pay because of disability thank you. Nice presentation also thanks.
Thanks for the question! I’m not tracking this question, sorry. Are you asking if your business debt exceeds consumer that you can qualify for chapter 7? I’m not sure of your exact situation, so may be helpful to get another free evaluation if you feel hesitating about the first one? Thanks!
will be 69 this month. On social security $1740. after deductions. Had good credit until heart attack a year ago. Had to stop working for a year surviving on unsecured loans and credit cards. Now I cannot keep with payments. Savings are gone. Nedd to be on payroll to survive and have rent money. Just got a job last week that pays $37.50 per hour. Because of the job, an attorney told I will not qualify for CH 7. Even though I would otherwise qualify based on earning of last 6 to 10 months. I am over 60 days late on my on credit cards and loans $44,000. Plus I owe abou $10000 in medical bills. I do not own a home, I only own 2005 Lincoln car, paid ott. What should I do? Chapter 7 or 13? I also own $171,000 in student loans.
Gosh, thank you so much for reaching out. Would love to chat through your situation. Would you mind if I connected you to a different bankruptcy attorney for a second opinion? Could you shoot my team a call/text at 833 272 3631 or fill out this form and we can look over your situation? tryascend.com/qualify/bankruptcy/ch7/vs-13-start/route/ch7vsch13youtube
Hi I had a heart attack last year and accrued so much debt and medical bills of over 250k and it’s now impossible to pay all my bills. I have no property except a car that’s paid off worth 7k. Should I file chapter 7?
Hey Irene, I am so sorry about the heart attack and the accrual of that debt. That sounds terribly stressful. What state are you in? That car may be covered by a wildcard or state auto exemption. If it's easier, give us a call or text at 833-272-3631? Thanks, and talk soon. -Ben
@@AscendFinance Thank you, I live in North Carolina. I heard about exemptions but not wildcards. How much should I expect to pay in lawyer fees for chapter 7?
Hey! So the range for a chapter 7 is usually between $1,000-$2500 but it depends on the state you live in and the complexity of your case. Feel free to give us a call at 833-272-3631.
It depends what your income is because you have to qualify for a chapter 7 since there is a threshold for the means test. If you want more info on it and see if you qualify, give us a call at 833-272-3631 and we'd be more than happy to help!
I think your approach here has you mind on the money you get, a case being dismissed? You didnt say why ut was dismiised... Too much debt? Attorney missed too many filing dates? Pretty rare to have a case like that dismissed, but you left it unexplained. Why?
If a chapter 13 is dismissed it could be due to missed payments, failure to attend hearings or complete courses, hardships not approved, failure to file necessary forms or missing any deadlines, and a common one is a voluntary dismissal. If you have any other questions you can always reach us at 833-272-3631.
Thanks for the fantastic question! We don't currently have any videos on that, but we will add that to the list! However, for now, we did build this free credit rebuilding portal to help folks rebuild their credit after bankruptcy. Here is a link to our free credit rebuilding portal: tryascend.com/chapter_7_bankruptcy_credit_rebuilding_portal
My pleasure! Yeah, we built this portal a few months ago specifically for those who would like to know sort of steps that could help them rebuild credit after bankruptcy.
@@tankdathomie I actually did not have anything of value that amount to any value so I really had a no asset chapter 7 I didn't have to give up anything I decided to keep my car because it was only worth $2,000 and it was in a title loan so I'm about to pay that off so everything went good I'm about to get my discharge my meeting 341 meeting was in May
@@bonniesims2229 I guess it depends on the state. I'm considering bankruptcy. How much did you have to pay? I appreciate the fast reply. Gonna have to add up everything and get a consultation.
@@tankdathomie I live in Georgia so my no asset Chapter 7 bankruptcy was 1800.00 and I got that on a payment plan and I had a very very good attorney I paid $200 a month until the balance is paid off
By the way it has been wonderful my phone has totally went silent but one thing I must bring to your attention is to always keep an eye on all three of your credit files to make sure accounts are being closed because I've had to file several disputes on all three credit bureaus during this whole process
In a Chapter 7 you may lose your car or home, but you can know whether you will lose it by checking with an attorney in a free consultation (we can connect you to one if needed click the link in description or in our bio. Or call/text 833 272 3631) In a Chapter 13 you can keep your home and car as long as you're able to keep up with the mortgage and car payments. You would just pay the home and car payments inside of your Chapter 13 payment plan.
I have over 15,000 in instalment loan debt some being from tribal loans I’m overwhelmed in payments and can no longer do it. I’m considering closing my bank account I simply cannot make these payments anymore what can I do Over 15k in instalment About 40k in overall debt

I also own $171,000 in student loans.

Hi I had a heart attack last year and accrued so much debt and medical bills of over 250k and it’s now impossible to pay all my bills. I have no property except a car that’s paid off worth 7k. Should I file chapter 7?
Hey Irene, I am so sorry about the heart attack and the accrual of that debt. That sounds terribly stressful. What state are you in? That car may be covered by a wildcard or state auto exemption. If it's easier, give us a call or text at 833-272-3631? Thanks, and talk soon. -Ben
@@AscendFinance Thank you, I live in North Carolina. I heard about exemptions but not wildcards. How much should I expect to pay in lawyer fees for chapter 7?
Hey! So the range for a chapter 7 is usually between $1,000-$2500 but it depends on the state you live in and the complexity of your case. Feel free to give us a call at 833-272-3631.
How long does it take to receive a case #?
When you file, you should receive a case number, I believe. Did you file with an attorney?
can I fill Chapter7 I have on Income I only have Credit card debt can I still fill
It depends what your income is because you have to qualify for a chapter 7 since there is a threshold for the means test. If you want more info on it and see if you qualify, give us a call at 833-272-3631 and we'd be more than happy to help!
I think your approach here has you mind on the money you get, a case being dismissed? You didnt say why ut was dismiised... Too much debt? Attorney missed too many filing dates? Pretty rare to have a case like that dismissed, but you left it unexplained. Why?
If a chapter 13 is dismissed it could be due to missed payments, failure to attend hearings or complete courses, hardships not approved, failure to file necessary forms or missing any deadlines, and a common one is a voluntary dismissal. If you have any other questions you can always reach us at 833-272-3631.
@@AscendFinance I'm currently looking for a chapter 7 lawyer, one that is affordable.
We can get you connected to a local firm for a free consultation if you want to see what the price would be? Give us a call at 833-272-3631.
When filing does it have to be in the state of your license. I'm a traveling Healthcare worker ?
It's usually your place of residence! You have to be living in the state for a certain amount of time.
Do you do videos on the best method of rebuilding credit after the case is accepted and done?
Thanks for the fantastic question! We don't currently have any videos on that, but we will add that to the list!
However, for now, we did build this free credit rebuilding portal to help folks rebuild their credit after bankruptcy. Here is a link to our free credit rebuilding portal: tryascend.com/chapter_7_bankruptcy_credit_rebuilding_portal
@@AscendFinance Thanks
My pleasure! Yeah, we built this portal a few months ago specifically for those who would like to know sort of steps that could help them rebuild credit after bankruptcy.
By the way my credit score went up due to income debt ratio
When you filled chapter 7, what assets did you give up? Video game consoles? TVs? Video game consoles?
@@tankdathomie I actually did not have anything of value that amount to any value so I really had a no asset chapter 7 I didn't have to give up anything I decided to keep my car because it was only worth $2,000 and it was in a title loan so I'm about to pay that off so everything went good I'm about to get my discharge my meeting 341 meeting was in May
@@bonniesims2229 I guess it depends on the state. I'm considering bankruptcy. How much did you have to pay? I appreciate the fast reply. Gonna have to add up everything and get a consultation.
@@tankdathomie I live in Georgia so my no asset Chapter 7 bankruptcy was 1800.00 and I got that on a payment plan and I had a very very good attorney I paid $200 a month until the balance is paid off
By the way it has been wonderful my phone has totally went silent but one thing I must bring to your attention is to always keep an eye on all three of your credit files to make sure accounts are being closed because I've had to file several disputes on all three credit bureaus during this whole process
can you serve here at 96950?
Hi! Sorry, we only operate within the US.
Do you lose your house and car?
In a Chapter 7 you may lose your car or home, but you can know whether you will lose it by checking with an attorney in a free consultation (we can connect you to one if needed click the link in description or in our bio. Or call/text 833 272 3631)
In a Chapter 13 you can keep your home and car as long as you're able to keep up with the mortgage and car payments. You would just pay the home and car payments inside of your Chapter 13 payment plan.
Does this include second mortgages?
Yes- it depends on the equity in the home.
