Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in California?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non exempt assets to pay creditors and typically takes 3 to 6 months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan for those with regular income. Your lawyer can help you decide which chapter fits your situation based on California means test requirements.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in California?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. This is federal law and applies in California as well.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in Norwalk California?
Yes you may keep your home if you have enough equity covered by the California homestead exemption. For cases filed after 2020 the exemption can protect up to 300000 or more depending on your county and circumstances. A lawyer can review your equity to confirm eligibility.
