Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Wisconsin bankruptcy exemptions?
Wisconsin allows you to use state exemptions or federal exemptions but not both. State exemptions protect up to 40000 dollars of home equity and up to 12000 dollars of vehicle equity. You can also exempt certain retirement accounts and personal property up to specific limits.
How long does a Chapter 7 bankruptcy take in Wisconsin?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Wisconsin typically takes about 3 to 4 months from filing to discharge. You must complete a credit counseling course before filing and a debtor education course after filing. The automatic stay stops most collection actions immediately.
Can I keep my car if I file bankruptcy in Fitchburg?
Yes you can often keep your car if you continue making payments or if the vehicle equity falls within Wisconsin exemption limits. For Chapter 7 you may reaffirm the loan or redeem the car. In Chapter 13 you can catch up on missed payments through a repayment plan.
