Will I lose all of my inheritance?

Answered by attorney Karen Jackson Porter
Bankruptcy lawyer at Porter Law Network
I am so sorry that you lost your parents. The bankruptcy law provides that if a debtor receives an inheritance within 180 days after the case is filed, the inheritance becomes property of the estate. You are required to notify the court and the trustee by amending your schedules to disclose the inheritance. The trustee has the right to the inheritance. You have the right to any funds that are properly exempt. You need to make sure you have claimed the proper exemptions. The trustee cannot take more than the claims of creditors plus the costs to handle the administration the estate. The administrative costs include the trustee's fees and the fees for the trustee's lawyers and accountants. If there are funds remaining after the payment of the creditors and administrative costs, those funds should be yours. If you had a lawyer for your chapter 7 case, please contact that lawyer immediately for assistance. If you do not have a lawyer, please hire one.

Could I file chapter 7 to get an eviction to stop in a small business?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)

A Chapter 7 will only delay an eviction by a few weeks. There may be better solutions to this problem than Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
