Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Florida?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy wipes out most unsecured debts but requires you to pass a means test. Chapter 13 involves a repayment plan over three to five years. Both options have different eligibility rules and effects on your assets.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in Greenacres Florida?
A Chapter 7 case usually takes three to four months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts the length of your repayment plan typically three to five years. The timeline can vary based on court schedules and case complexity.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in Florida?
Florida has an unlimited homestead exemption for property up to half an acre in a municipality or 160 acres elsewhere. This means you may keep your home if you have enough equity and meet residency requirements. An attorney can review your specific situation.
