Can an online pay loan that I defaulted on press criminal charges like bad checks on my family members?

Answered by attorney Daniel A. Edelman
Bankruptcy lawyer at Edelman, Combs, Latturner & Goodwin, LLC
1. Under no circumstances is nonpayment of a loan criminal. 2. The bad check statutes do not apply to a postdated check issued in connection with a loan. They also do not apply to ACH authorizations and the like. 3. Most online lenders are unlicensed. Their loans are unenforceable. You may be entitled to substantial statutory damages from them. Send them a letter stating that you refuse to pay. 4. The type of collection conduct you describe is abusive. Report it to law enforcement (Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, state Attorney General). 5. The main problem with taking legal action against such lenders is finding them.

Is it true that under the new bankruptcy law the judge determines who you pay back?

Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
Yes, and No. If you file a Chapter 7 and you are a no asset case, there is no pay back. If you file a Chapter 13, then you must file a Plan which describes who and how will be paid back. If the Trustee agrees with the Plan, then the Judge can confirm it, so the answer is Yes and No.

What type of a written defense would need to be given when a civil summons is served about a credit card debt?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John F. Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
Answer each allegation made in the complaint honestly and additionally your defenses where appropriate. If you believe you have a defense you are being very foolish in attempting to answer/defend the suit without counsel. If you actually owe the money, the use what you have to pay the debt as opposed to wasting it on an attorney who will advise you to pay the debt.
