Debts and Credit
Would a creditor be treated differently if I were to file bankruptcy before a judgement is entered?
Due to medical problems, I may need to declare bankruptcy. I am living on SSI and Medicaid. I am not the head of the household. Under Federal exemptions, I will be able to keep most of my land but I might have to give up some of it. With multi-creditors (some lawsuits in near future), is a creditor treated differently after winning a judgment than they would be if I declared before they could beat me in court? Any strategies for keeping my 17 acres of land?
Can credit card companies get a judgement against my property without going to court?
I owe about $66,000 to credit cards. I have real estate valued at around $180,000. My question is, can the credit card companies or lawyers tie up my property without my day in court? Can they get a judgment without going to court on any of my real estate?
