Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Chapter 7 is a liquidation bankruptcy that discharges most unsecured debts quickly and is best for those without significant non-exempt assets. Chapter 13 creates a structured 3–5 year repayment plan, allowing you to catch up on mortgage arrears and keep assets while reorganizing what you owe. Attorney Tolentino will help you determine which chapter fits your situation.

Not necessarily. Bankruptcy exemptions often allow you to keep your home, vehicle, and personal property. In Chapter 13 especially, you can cure mortgage arrears and stop foreclosure. We analyze your assets carefully before filing to protect what matters most to you.

Yes. The moment your bankruptcy petition is filed, an automatic stay goes into effect. This federal order legally requires all creditors to stop collection calls, letters, lawsuits, garnishments, and bank levies — immediately.

It will impact your credit, but it is rarely permanent. For many clients, obtaining a discharge actually improves their score because the debt-to-income picture changes. Many people begin rebuilding credit successfully within a year or two of their discharge.

Most unsecured debts — including credit cards, medical bills, utility bills, personal loans, and certain older tax debts — can be discharged. Student loans, recent taxes, child support, and alimony are generally not dischargeable. We review your full debt profile to tell you exactly what qualifies.

In some cases, yes. Certain older income tax debts that meet specific criteria can be discharged in bankruptcy. Federal tax liens are more complex but can sometimes be addressed through the bankruptcy process. We assess your tax situation specifically during your consultation.

We offer easy, flexible payment plans to make representation accessible. We also offer a free initial consultation and free telephone consultation so you can understand your options at no cost. Call us to discuss a fee arrangement that works for your budget.
