Frequently Asked Questions
What types of bankruptcy can I file in East Syracuse?
Individuals in East Syracuse typically file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 7 involves liquidating non-exempt assets to pay creditors, while Chapter 13 sets up a repayment plan over three to five years. New York allows you to choose between state and federal exemptions to protect your property.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in New York?
A Chapter 7 case in the Northern District of New York usually takes about three to four months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts for the duration of your repayment plan, which is typically three to five years. Your lawyer can give you a more specific timeline based on your situation.
Will I lose my house or car if I file for bankruptcy?
Not necessarily. New York has generous exemptions that can protect a significant amount of equity in your home and a vehicle up to a certain value. For example, the New York homestead exemption can protect up to $179,975 in home equity for most filers. A lawyer can help you determine if your assets are safe.
