Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Maryland?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy discharges most unsecured debts after non-exempt assets are sold. Chapter 13 bankruptcy requires a 3 to 5 year repayment plan. Maryland uses state exemption laws which allow you to protect certain property such as your home and vehicle up to specific dollar limits.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Maryland?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy remains on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. The automatic stay stops collection actions immediately upon filing.
What assets can I keep if I file bankruptcy in Ellicott City?
Maryland law allows you to keep up to $6,000 of equity in a vehicle and up to $25,150 of equity in your home under the homestead exemption. Personal property and tools of trade are also protected up to certain amounts. These exemptions are adjusted periodically.
