    I truly recommend Stiberman law! They provided expert bankruptcy representation. Robert met with my wife and I and throughly explained the bankruptcy process,made us feel at ease and pretty much held our hand every step of the way. His office is always quick to respond to any questions we have and always made us feel important even though they handle a lot of cases. I highly recommend them.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Bankruptcy in DeLand, FL

    1. Who qualifies to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Florida?
    Eligibility for Chapter 7 bankruptcy is generally determined by the federal “means test,” which compares your household income to the median income for Florida. If your income is below the state median or you meet certain exceptions, you may qualify. (Source: U.S. Courts, Bankruptcy Basics)
    2. How long does the Chapter 7 bankruptcy process usually take?
    A typical Chapter 7 bankruptcy case takes about four to six months from the date of filing to discharge. The exact timeline can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the court’s schedule. (Source: U.S. Courts, Bankruptcy Basics)
    3. What happens at the Chapter 13 meeting of creditors?
    Also called a “341 meeting,” this is a required step where the debtor answers questions under oath from the trustee and any creditors who attend. It is not a trial, but rather a review of the bankruptcy petition and repayment plan. (Source: U.S. Trustee Program, U.S. Department of Justice)
    4. What property can I keep if I file for bankruptcy in Florida?
    Florida law allows bankruptcy filers to claim exemptions that protect certain property, such as a homestead, personal property, retirement accounts, and in some cases, wages. The availability and value of exemptions depend on your specific circumstances. (Source: Florida Statutes, Ch. 222)
    5. Can bankruptcy stop foreclosure or creditor lawsuits in Florida?
    When a bankruptcy case is filed, an automatic stay under federal law takes effect. This stay temporarily halts most collection actions, including foreclosure proceedings, wage garnishments, and lawsuits, while the case is pending. (Source: 11 U.S.C. § 362, U.S. Bankruptcy Code)
