Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose everything if I file bankruptcy?▼

No. New York bankruptcy exemptions protect many assets including your home (up to certain equity limits), retirement accounts, necessary clothing, household goods, and tools of your trade. Many clients keep most or all of their property. Our attorneys will explain exactly what's protected in your situation.

How long does bankruptcy stay on my credit report?▼

Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years, while Chapter 13 stays for 7 years. However, many clients see their credit scores begin improving within 1-2 years after discharge as they rebuild credit responsibly.

Can bankruptcy stop a foreclosure?▼

Yes. Filing bankruptcy triggers an automatic stay that immediately stops foreclosure proceedings. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can allow you to catch up on missed mortgage payments over 3-5 years while keeping your home. Contact us immediately if you're facing foreclosure.
