FAQs

What is bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy is a legal process that protects individuals and businesses that no longer can meet their financial obligations. There are two common types of bankruptcy: Chapter 7 and Chapter 13.

Will I lose all my personal belongings when I file bankruptcy?

Probably not. The California bankruptcy court system is not set up to take your couch and sell it at an auction. The trustee assigned to your bankruptcy case wants to take valuable assets like homes with considerable amounts of equity, investments accounts like annuities or cash value life insurance policies, proceeds to be received from a pending lawsuit and sometimes large tax refunds. However, Westgate Law is going to provide a detailed plan in order to reduce the number of items you may lose or protect those items altogether.

How long is the entire process?

A typical case will take approximately four to six months from the date of filing to be officially closed. You do not have much to do during that time period other than appear at one meeting with the court-appointed trustee. A Westgate Law attorney will properly prepare you for that meeting and will attend that meeting with you.

Will I lose my house and my car?

No, in the vast majority of cases. Westgate Law will assess your case and determine the likelihood that you could lose any assets at all. California has very liberal bankruptcy exemptions that allow you to protect large amounts of personal assets. The vast majority of people filing for bankruptcy protection do not lose any assets at all, only their debt.

If I file, does my spouse have to file, too?

No. One spouse can file without the other. This is done all the time. The most common time to file one spouse only is when you have just gotten married and one spouse is burdened with unmanageable amounts of debt. Even when you have been married for a while, it can still make sense to file one spouse only. Maybe one spouse has all the debt in his or her name only. You can file as an individual so long as the entire household qualifies for bankruptcy. The income and assets of both spouses must be reviewed prior to filing a case for one spouse only.

More detailed information is available on the FAQ page of our website.
