Will You Lose Your Assets in Bankruptcy?
One of the biggest concerns people have about bankruptcy is whether they will lose their home, vehicle, tax refund, or other property.
Bankruptcy does not automatically mean that you will lose everything you own. Virginia law provides exemptions that may allow you to protect certain assets during bankruptcy. The exemptions available to you depend on your individual circumstances and the type of property involved.
Our bankruptcy lawyers in Hampton Roads can review your assets and financial situation and explain how applicable exemptions may affect your case.
Can You Rebuild Credit After Bankruptcy?
Filing for bankruptcy can affect your credit, and it is understandable to be concerned about what that means for your financial future. However, bankruptcy does not mean that you will never be able to obtain credit again.
As you move forward after bankruptcy, establishing responsible financial habits can help you begin rebuilding your credit. Depending on your circumstances, you may eventually qualify for financing for major purchases such as a vehicle or home.
Our Bankruptcy attorneys can help you understand the bankruptcy process and the steps you can take to move toward a stronger financial future.
