Bring recent pay stubs, tax returns, bank statements, a list of assets and liabilities, notices from creditors, and any prior court documents regarding your debts. Erin will need these documents to assess your financial situation accurately and determine the best debt relief strategy.
Alternatives include debt settlement, negotiation, credit counseling, and loan consolidation. Erin Lane can negotiate with creditors, create a feasible repayment plan, or help you understand whether other legal protections apply, like the Colorado Wage Garnishment Rules.
Bankruptcy, governed by federal law, offers a discharge of most unsecured debts through either liquidation (Chapter 7) or reorganization (Chapter 13). Debt settlement, on the other hand, involves Erin directly negotiating with creditors to reduce the amount owed. While both options can provide relief, they differ significantly. Bankruptcy offers a stronger safety net through the "automatic stay," which halts all collection efforts by creditors. Conversely, debt settlement might leave some creditors unsatisfied, potentially leading to lawsuits or wage garnishments.
When you file for bankruptcy, the automatic stay provision immediately halts creditor harassment, wage garnishments, and other collection actions, meaning creditors cannot contact you directly or pursue legal action until the Colorado courts resolve your bankruptcy case. This provision provides peace of mind while your attorney negotiates your debt relief.
Yes, you can stop a home foreclosure in Colorado by leveraging various legal strategies. One is filing for bankruptcy. It triggers an automatic stay, which immediately halts all collection actions, including foreclosure. In Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can incorporate past-due mortgage payments into a structured repayment plan, allowing you to catch up over time while keeping your home. Additionally, borrowers are allowed to cure the default by paying back missed payments and any associated fees before the foreclosure sale under Colorado law. To avoid foreclosure altogether, Erin can help you negotiate with your lender or explore other debt-relief options, such as loan modifications.
Yes, you can stop repossession in Denver by using legal strategies that safeguard your rights. When you file for bankruptcy in Colorado, it triggers the automatic stay provision which immediately halts repossession actions from creditors. Another option is Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which allows you to incorporate missed payments into a manageable repayment plan, catch up over time, and keep your vehicle. Furthermore, Colorado law protects against unlawful repossession tactics, requiring creditors to follow proper procedures. Erin will help you negotiate with creditors, file for bankruptcy, or explore other debt-relief options to protect your property.
Because medical bills are generally considered unsecured debt, Courts can discharge them under Chapter 7 bankruptcy. In Chapter 13, they may be included in your repayment plan, significantly reducing or eliminating their impact.
