Chapter 7 and 13 In Gerogia

There are some situation in which a chapter 13 is preferable to  a chapter 7.    A chapter 13 will help you if you are behind in your mortgage payments or other property that you want to keep that the payments are behind.  If you have valuable property that is not covered by Georgia bankruptcy  exemption you will probably  need to file a chapter 13.  People also file a chapter 13 if they have too much income.  However,  the vast majority of people file a chapter 7.  Remember bankruptcy can help you save your home by stopping foreclosures,  and garnishments. and you get the protection of the court immediately.  Bankruptcy is not the sign of death as it was once considered,  look at the positive side of getting back on track.

IS THERE AN EQUAL DISTRIBUTION IN GEROGIA

The first question a lot of couple filing for divorce ask is whether they or their spouse is entitled to half of marital property.  The answer is that Georgia law dose not require marital property to be divided equally.  Georgia courts apply the principles of equal division, which mean that the appointment of marital  property  between spouses  is to be a fair division, not necessarily 50-50.  It is divided case by case, and some factors are (1) if each spouse contribute to the acquisition and maintenance of the property (2)  the duration of the marriage.  This is a case by case decision and Georgia is an equal distribution state, not community property.

BANKRUPTCY IN VIRGINIA

.Bankruptcy in Virginia has a wild card that can be used to cover some exemptions.  If you have property that is secured by a loan such as a car or home, and your are current on the payments and the equality  is covered by your exemptions,  you may  elect to keep making payments on the loan,  and keep the property through bankruptcy.  If all equality is not covered by your exemptions, the trustee may elect to liquidate and distribute the proceeds.   Generally, in this case you will be entitled to the value of your exemptions in the exemptions of your access, in laymen turn,  you will keep your property.  The bankruptcy laws also allows joint couples to claim a full set of exemptions each,  unless otherwise
noted.  When filing bankruptcy in Virginia,  you have certain federal exemptions, as well as Virginia state exemptions.  For more information on exemptions call a bankruptcy lawyer or a bankruptcy preparer.   Visit our new website at http://mdesignersinc.wix.com/justice4alllegal.  We are still working on it to bring you more current data.
