Can I do something about harrassment due to a payday loan in a bankruptcy?

Sean Thomas Flynn
Answered by attorney Sean Thomas Flynn (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Law Offices of Sean T. Flynn, PLLC
You may file a lawsuit to sue the creditor for violating the discharge. If they are calling you this is a violation of the discharge. I would advise that you first contact the attorney who assisted you in the bankruptcy, since they are familiar with the case. The creditor may be liable for damages and sanctions from the bankruptcy court so I would advise you to push the matter further.

Can I reaffirm the first mortgage and surrender the second mortgage on my home in a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
Impossible. You can only remove a second mortgage by lien-stripping in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. The Courts have held that they do not have the authority to lien-strip in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. However, there can be other options to allow you to keep your home & eliminate the 2nd mortgage. But reaffirming the 1st mortgage isn't the way to go for many many reasons. Get to a competent bankruptcy attorney before you shoot yourself in the foot.
