Are creditors entitled to a cash gift received from a parent while in bankruptcy?
A friend is in bankruptcy. In an unrelated circumstance, his father is selling a home he no longer uses and wants to give some of the proceeds to his his son. Are these proceeds safe from creditors? Thanks.

Is it better to file bankruptcy to get rid of a large credit card balance or use a credit counseling service?
This question is related to my Mom who has a very large balance 00, and because her income is limited, the interest is eating her up! She lives with me now, is nearly 70 and never plans to buy a house again or car. I’ve recommended CCCS because they will at least stop the interest so she can finally make a dent in the balance when she pays her 0 a month (all she can afford). Her brother told her to file bankruptcy, but I didn’t want her too.

Wanting to File for Chapter 7 – Bankruptcy?
My car was repossessed 2 years ago. They auctioned of my car and want me to pay the difference of ,000. I also have bills of credit card debt and utilities from the past 5 years that I just don’t have the money to pay. I work part time of 25/hrs per week. I still don’t have a car, its difficult for me to get around in the city without spending too much money on transportation. So with the collection agency coming at me with the car money, and all my other debt would be about ,000. I make about 450/month.
I really feel like the only option at this point is to file – since finding a second job is diffcult.
Will I qualify for chapter 7?

bankruptcy including a mortgage?
we’re getting ready to file and are probably going to be discharging our house as well. for anyone who has done this, were you able to get another mortgage….ever? and how long after were you able to get approved? did you have a hard time until it was no longer on your credit report (ie: the full 10 years)?

Can I lose my house and investment properties if there is no equity if I file for bankruptcy?
I own a house and 4 rental properties and I am worried that if I file for bankruptcy, I will lose them. There is little or no equity in any of these properties. The debt that I am looking to get rid of is mostly credit cards. I have never been late on any payments, but if I don’t look into filing for bankruptcy, it will eventually lead to not being able to keep up with my payments.

can someone still file bankruptcy on a creditor when they just made a verbal agreement (recorded) to pay them?
my husband was tricked into a monthly payment we can not afford by a collections agency. they recorded him agreeing to pay that amount automatically out of a bank account. could he still file bankruptcy and have them on it or would he be liable to pay them because of the just made recording? does the fact he was "scared" into agreeing matter? they told him they would sue him if he did not agree.

How much longer until our eviction after bankruptcy?
My wife and I filed chapter 7 late last year (’08) and were discharged in January of this year (’09). We included our (B of A) mortgage in the bankruptcy and here we are now in September and still haven’t received an eviction notice. Can anybody tell me how long this takes? It’s very stressful to not know. Thanks.
