Is it legal for the new company to come after me for a house on a bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Cameron Hall Totten (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at KJM Law Partners
How are they coming after you? If they are simply sending you statements regarding the debt (i.e., the lien on the property) that is allowed. If they are suing you for the amount owed on the mortgage (as opposed to threatening to foreclose on the property), than that is a violation of the discharge order. The bankruptcy only discharged your personal liability for the mortgage, not the lien on the property.

On the court judgment that was awarded to you. If no court judgment, you will need to review your financial records and prepare an accounting of this debt to submit with your proof of claim. No financial records submitted with the POC & you can expect your claim to be rejected.

How can we prove that there was a breach of contract if we don't have a copy of the contract and most of the transactions were verbal?

Under IL law a contract resulting from a door to door sales contact may be cancelled within 3 days after you receive a written contract and notice of your right to cancel. Cancel in writing. No reason need be given. You have a complete defense to the claim. If the threats are coming from a collection lawyer or debt collector, they violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Consult an attorney familiar with this area.
