Being a Las Vegas Lawyer I’m versed in working with both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 personal bankruptcies. Unfortunately, Las vegas can be considered the Bankruptcy capital of the United states. So, before considering filing for a Las Vegas Bankruptcy you should recognize what bankruptcy can do for you. This post is a brief essay about the automatic stay in Bankruptcy. Upon filing bankruptcy, as a debtor, an automatic stay is enacted. What an automatic stay forbids lenders from doing certain measures. For instance, once bankruptcy is filed a creditor cannot due the foregoing: Commence or continue a court action towards you in any attempt to collect financial obligations that you allegedly owe. Carry on with any collection calls. Once bankruptcy is filed a collection agency must cease and desist all attempts to collect any alleged debts. All repossessions must stop. Please be aware that if you’re behind on payments, filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy can temporarily stop the repossession of one’s car. But, the stay is only non permanent. The creditor’s can be able to reposess your car if they decide to file a request to lift the automatic stay. Filing bankruptcy can stop the foreclosure sale of your house. Again, with a chapter 7 bankruptcy, this is temporary. A chapter 13 bankruptcy can afford you more protection if your goal is to stop a foreclosure sale. Filing bankruptcy can stop the garnishment of one’s wages. This automatic stay will last until the following: 1. At the request of a creditor, the judge may lift the automatic stay. 2. The item of property no longer is associated with the individual filing for bankruptcy. 3. The debtor receives the discharge. This occurs during when a chapter 7 bankruptcy is filed and a foreclosure and /or repossession is briefly halted. After the debtor receives a discharge a creditor is then free to purse repossession and foreclosure on the debtor’s property. Therefore, with an automatic stay, a bankruptcy can allow you to get your financial affairs together, provide you relief from bothering calls from creditors, and cease the garnishing of your wages. However, remember in the case of a chapter 7 bankruptcy these results are only temporary.
