Can You Keep The House If You File Bankruptcy?
Can you keep the house if you file bankruptcy or after a divorce in Shepherdsville or anywhere in Bullitt County Kentucky? Of course, there are many options available including the ability to put together a plan spread across 5 years that allows you to get back on your feet. There is a special form of bankruptcy, Chapter 13, for those who have a home or other things which are important to them such as a car, truck or valuable collections. We will work with you to determine what is owed and to whom, and develop a plan that will help you to move forward in a way that is best for your unique situation.
We are able to resolve many seemingly impossible financial challenges such as several late mortgage payments or even foreclosure, often for a small amount when compared to what is presently owed. Chapter 13 is designed to help most people to develop a reasonable plan that they are comfortable with, a plan with affordable payments you can make now and in the next 5 years to get back into a position of good credit and financial health over the period of a few years.
This is why it is important to contact the Law Offices of John Schmidt & Associates, PLLC, as soon as you can.

What do I do if My Former Spouse Isn’t Paying the House Payment?
Was your former spouse supposed to pay the mortgage as part of the divorce, and now they’ve fallen behind or stopped making payments altogether? What happens next? How can you keep the house and protect your interests and credit?
A recent change in Kentucky laws allows you seek modifications to your divorce agreement by “decree”, avoiding any expensive court battle and potentially large costs.
