Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in New Jersey?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to pay creditors and can discharge most unsecured debts. Chapter 13 involves a 3-to-5-year repayment plan for individuals with regular income who want to keep their property. New Jersey requires credit counseling before filing either type.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in Warren New Jersey?
A Chapter 7 case typically takes 3 to 6 months from filing to discharge. Chapter 13 cases last the length of the repayment plan, usually 3 to 5 years. New Jersey bankruptcy courts follow the federal timeline but local court rules may affect scheduling.
What property can I keep if I file for bankruptcy in New Jersey?
New Jersey allows you to use state exemptions to protect certain property. For example, you can keep up to $1,000 in cash and up to $15,000 in household goods. Homestead exemption protects up to $100,000 of equity in your primary residence. A lawyer can help you apply these exemptions correctly.
