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 4 months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan for individuals with regular income. Florida law allows you to keep certain property like your home and car under state exemptions.
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 from the filing date. You can begin rebuilding credit soon after your case is discharged.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in Port Charlotte?
Yes, you may keep your home if you claim the Florida homestead exemption. This exemption protects an unlimited amount of equity in your primary residence up to one half acre in a municipality or 160 acres elsewhere. You must have owned the home for at least 1215 days before filing.
