Frequently Asked Questions

What types of bankruptcy can I file in Berlin Connecticut?
Individuals in Berlin typically file Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 7 involves liquidating non-exempt assets to pay creditors, while Chapter 13 requires a repayment plan over three to five years. Connecticut allows you to use state exemptions or federal exemptions, but not both.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in Connecticut?
A Chapter 7 case in Connecticut usually takes three to four months from filing to discharge. Chapter 13 cases last three to five years, depending on your income and repayment plan. The court requires credit counseling before filing and a debtor education course after filing.
Will I lose my house if I file for bankruptcy in Berlin?
Connecticut has a homestead exemption that protects up to $75,000 of equity in your primary residence if you file for bankruptcy. For married couples filing jointly, the exemption doubles to $150,000. If your equity exceeds these limits, you may still keep your home by using Chapter 13 to catch up on missed payments.
