Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in New Jersey?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows you to discharge most unsecured debts by liquidating non-exempt assets. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a repayment plan over 3 to 5 years. In New Jersey, you must pass a means test to qualify for Chapter 7, and your income and debts determine eligibility for Chapter 13.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in New Jersey?
A Chapter 7 case typically takes 3 to 6 months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts the length of your repayment plan, usually 3 to 5 years. New Jersey requires you to complete a credit counseling course before filing and a debtor education course after filing.
Will I lose my home if I file for bankruptcy in Linwood?
New Jersey has specific homestead exemptions that may protect equity in your home. Under New Jersey law, you can exempt up to a certain amount of equity in your primary residence. A bankruptcy lawyer can help you determine if your home is protected based on your specific situation.
