Will my assets be taken when I file for bankruptcy?
The short answer is not likely. It is common for people filing for bankruptcy to fear that they will lose their assets, property, or other belongings. The fact is: most people who file for bankruptcy get to keep more or all of their belongings.
As long as you disclose all of your assets prior to filing, you will know if you have assets that cannot be protected through bankruptcy.
I’m afraid my friends and family are going to judge me for filing for bankruptcy.
In our experience, the majority of people who file for bankruptcy are at least a little afraid that people will find out about their bankruptcy. Unfortunately, there is still a stigma associated with bankruptcy. We encourage you to think of bankruptcy as your legal right and a financial decision that will get you out of debt.
While bankruptcy filings are public record, generally speaking, if you do not tell someone you filed for bankruptcy, they will not know. Most people don’t know how to, or won’t spend the time to, search through the public record database to see if you have filed for bankruptcy.
