Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Massachusetts?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates your non-exempt assets to pay creditors and typically discharges most debts within 3-4 months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3-5 year repayment plan based on your income. Massachusetts has its own exemption laws that determine what property you can keep.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in Revere Massachusetts?
A Chapter 7 case usually takes about 3-4 months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts 3-5 years while you make payments. The court in Boston handles all Revere filings, and you must complete a debtor education course before receiving a discharge.
What property can I keep if I file bankruptcy in Massachusetts?
Massachusetts allows you to use state exemptions to protect certain property, including up to $500,000 in home equity, one motor vehicle up to $7,500, and household goods. You can also keep retirement accounts and most personal belongings. A lawyer can help you apply these exemptions to your specific situation.
