Frequently Asked Questions
What is the New Jersey means test for bankruptcy?
The means test compares your income to the median income for a New Jersey household of your size. If your income is below the median, you may qualify for Chapter 7. If it is above, Chapter 13 may be required. A Wyckoff lawyer can help calculate your eligibility.
What property can I keep in a New Jersey bankruptcy?
New Jersey uses state exemption laws to protect certain assets. You may keep up to $1,000 in personal property, $23,675 in home equity, and $4,000 in a vehicle. Retirement accounts and some tools of trade are also exempt. A lawyer can explain which exemptions apply to your situation.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in New Jersey?
A Chapter 7 case typically takes 3 to 4 months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts 3 to 5 years as you complete a repayment plan. The process begins with filing a petition in the Newark or Trenton bankruptcy court.
