Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main types of bankruptcy for individuals in Lahaina?
The two main types are Chapter 7, which wipes out most unsecured debts, and Chapter 13, which sets up a repayment plan over 3 to 5 years. Hawaii residents must complete credit counseling before filing either type.
How long does bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Hawaii?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. You can rebuild credit sooner with responsible financial habits.
Can I keep my house in Lahaina if I file for bankruptcy?
Hawaii has a homestead exemption that protects up to $30,000 of equity in your home, or up to $60,000 if you are married and file jointly. If your equity is within these limits, you can keep your home in Chapter 7.
