Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Florida?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to pay creditors and typically discharges most debts within 3 to 6 months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan based on your income. Florida law requires a means test to determine eligibility for Chapter 7.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Florida?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy remains on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. You can begin rebuilding credit soon after discharge by using secured credit cards or small loans.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in North Port Florida?
Florida has an unlimited homestead exemption which may allow you to keep your home if the property meets certain requirements. The exemption applies to property up to one-half acre in a municipality or 160 acres elsewhere. You must have lived in Florida for at least 2 years to use this exemption.
