Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in California?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to pay creditors and typically discharges most debts within a few months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a repayment plan over three to five years, allowing you to keep your property while catching up on missed payments. A lawyer can help you decide which option fits your circumstances.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in California?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy remains on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. California law does not change these federal reporting time limits.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in Cathedral City?
Yes, you may keep your home if you have enough equity protected by California's homestead exemption. The exemption amount depends on your county and whether you are married. A bankruptcy lawyer can evaluate your equity and help you protect your home.
