    Bankruptcy is a setback, not a defeat. Hopefully, others will seek professional help from watching your videos.

      Why use a lawyer?

    • @AscendFinance
      @AscendFinance  7 місяців тому

      Sometimes filing on your own may be complex. It seems like there was a study done a few years ago and it looked like less than 3% of Ch13 cases filed on their own ended in a discharge. So, it seems like since Ch13 is so complex over 90% of the people that file it on their own don’t do it successfully. Just something to keep in mind!

      @@AscendFinance hmm Don't know that I'd necessarily conclude it is the result of 'complexity,' as the myth the law can't be ascertained by non lawyers works to a lawyer's advantage. It could be a ProSe bias in the courts, could be the average IQ, and legal experience, in that pool wasn't very high, or key filings were missed due to bad government language, poor court instruction, etc. Hard to say really. My mom, a first grade teacher, no legal experience, many years ago, probated both her estate and my dad's, after grandparents on both sides died about the same time. She bought a book from Barnes and Noble, and had no advice from a lawyer. Her Judge said he'd never seen work as detailed and good as her work, and wished the lawyers that came before him could do the work half as good as she did. I referred a friend to a lawyer recently to probate his mother's estate and the lawyer was confused, and nearly screwed it all up. My friend was not happy. Haha I've filed appeals, written 30 pages of legal argument and won, by unanimous decision. My mom and I are likely unique, sure, but studies can be the devil, especially today with them being used more as propaganda to deter people from all manner of tasks, including ProSe legal work. Peace!

      Thank you so much for sharing that personal experience! I'm glad you and your mom were able to do it on your own and be so meticulous, I'm sure so much work went into it. So glad it worked out for you both! :)

    Would filing for bankruptcy have any impact on your retirement fund??

      I believe retirement accounts are protected accounts from Bankruptcy. If you want I can connect you to a bankruptcy attorney for a free consultation to confirm! Reach out through the links in our bio/description or call us at 833 272 3631

    Is it legal to put a lien on the bank account when the person receives monthly SSI direct deposit payments? And can a person get the money back after completing the filling of a chapter seven getting the debt discharge?

      That would be a great question for an attorney, but I’m guessing you may be looking to file without one? Thanks for watching!

    Can I file for chapter 7 bankruptcy without adding my 2 car loans and 3 credit cards? I have 5 unsecured personal loans I want to file for and that's it.

    • @AscendFinance

      Typically it's hard to exclude debts from the bankruptcy. That being said, you could always consult with a local attorney on whether they may find it feasible. Feel free to call/text us at 833-272-3631.

    If your wages are already being garnished, does bankruptcy help with that?

    • @AscendFinance
      @AscendFinance  Рік тому +1

      Hey Queen B, thanks for the message. A bankruptcy can potentially help with a garnishment, but it may depend on what type of garnishment it is. If you can give us a call at 833-272-3631, we can chat through it too! Wish you all the best!

    Are there any tools similar to upsolve for a married couple filing chapter 7? It says it’s not a tool for married couple.

    I went to the forms website, there are so many. How do I even decide what I need? I may have to find an Attorney with a payment plan but I was hoping to see if I could do it myself.

    • @AscendFinance
      @AscendFinance  3 місяці тому

      That is a big reason why most people file with an attorney- it can be a complex process and requires a lot of research so it is filed correctly. If you need an attorney, give us a call at 833-272-3631 and we can set up a free consultation.

    I understand you're not giving legal advice. I am going to file chapter 7 soon but I got served by a credit card company and the court date is later this week. I see no reason to go as they are right and I do own them. Should I try to file my chapter 7 before that date. I'm assuming they will get a default judgment but it's concerning to me. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
    BTW: I liked your video. It was short and concise and dispelled some of my concerns.
