Memphis Medical debt is quite often a factor in the need to seek debt relief by filing either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy . No matter how much you plan and budget, an unforeseen medical issue can interrupt your ability to earn a living, and leave you with  medical debt  that you cannot pay. When you have children, you never know when they will get sick, break a bone, or have some sport injury. It is always a good idea to take advantage of any health care insurance provided through your job. If health insurance is not provided, there are insurance options through the “Obamacare” plans that you should look into for coverage. However, if the bills are too large, and you find that you have been sued and garnishments are being placed against your paycheck, it does not hurt to see if you can get relief through filing either a Chapter7 bankruptcy  case to get rid of this debt, or a Chapter 13 bankruptcy  case to help consolidate your bills, stop the garnishment, ...

Bankruptcy Terms Bankruptcy law is primarily federal law and varies little from state to state. The United States Constitution grants to Congress the power to establish uniform bankruptcy laws throughout the United States, which ensures uniformity in how bankruptcy proceedings are conducted, encourages interstate commerce, and promotes national economic security. The individual states do, however, retain jurisdiction over certain debtor-creditor issues that are not addressed by or do not conflict with federal bankruptcy law, such as which property remains exempt from creditors' claims. Bankruptcy law provides two basic forms of relief: (1) liquidation and (2) rehabilitation, also known as reorganization. Chapter 7 Liquidation . Most bankruptcies filed in the United States involve liquidation, which is governed by Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In a Chapter 7 liquidation case, a bankruptcy trustee collects the debtor's nonexempt property and converts it into cash. The t...

Memphis Light Gas and Water bills are often the reason that people file either Chapter 7 bankruptcy  or Chapter 13 bankruptcy .  If you decide to have your utility services reconnected by filing either type of bankruptcy , MLG & W will close out your old account, and start a new one.  However, they will charge a reconnect deposit, which can be between $150 and $300, and add this to your new bill.  If you are currently in a bankruptcy and make a new bill after you have filed a case, MLG & W will not allow this bill to be added to your bankruptcy .  Also, if the utility bill has been incurred as a result of a “diversion” or stealing services, these charges cannot be paid through your Chapter 13 bankruptcy  plan, and MLG & W will fight the ability to discharge these bills.  You will need to contact a customer service representative at MLG & W to set up arrangements to pay these charges.

If your car has been repossessed , and has not been sold at auction, it is possible to get the car returned by the filing of a Chapter 13 bankruptcy .  This process can take up to two weeks, but most reputable finance companies will return the vehicle within a few days after the filing.  They sometimes want their expenses, such as  car repossession fees and storage fees, paid in order to get the vehicle returned.  However, many will return the car once they have received the notice of the filing of a bankruptcy , and will add the expenses to their claim with the Court.  Quite often, your monthly payment  and interest rates can be reduced by the filing of a Chapter 13 bankruptcy .  If you do not want your car returned, you can eliminate any balance that you owe by the filing of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy  case, and also wipe out other debt.

One of the biggest burdens on individuals filing either Chapter 7 bankruptcy  or Chapter 13 bankruptcy are student loans .  Section 532(a)(8) of the bankruptcy code governs a debtor’s discharge of student loan debt .  The law presumes that such debts are not dischargeable.  There is a very narrow exception if a debtor is able to show that the repayment of the student loan will cause an “undue hardship” on the debtor.  The cases that have been decided By the Courts make it extremely difficult to prove the “undue hardship”, and very few loans are discharged.  There has been some limited exceptions allowed, but very few.  There is discussion that the one of the planks of platform being proposed by the Democrats for this election is some type of relief for burdensome student loans, and hope that the Republicans at least consider a similar plank in their platform.   Student loans cause great difficulties for many young people trying to get start...
