Do you need a Columbia SC Bankruptcy Fraud lawyer?

Bankruptcy fraud carries a sentence of a fine of up to $250,000 and/orย  five years inย  federal prison. Bankruptcy fraud charges can occur when:

  • Bankruptcy FraudAn individual conceals their assets by purposely failing to list every asset knowing that a creditor cannot liquidate their property in bankruptcy.
  • An individual is involved in a petition mill, in which someone poses as a financial advisor and files hastily prepared bankruptcy in the victimโ€™s, often times unbeknownst to the victim.
  • An individual files bankruptcy in multiple states using their real name and information, false names and information, or a combination of the two. They then list some of their assets, but not all, so liquidators will not seize all their assets.

SC Bankruptcy Fraud Lawyers Overview

SC Bankruptcy fraud lawyers define Bankruptcyย  as the legal status of a person who is considered insolvent, meaning they cannot repay the debts they owe to their creditors. There are several different types of bankruptcy and depend based on the person filing and their debts. Organizations may also file for bankruptcy.

The most common type of bankruptcy fraud for is Chapter 7 bankruptcy fraud.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy states that an individual may petition the court to discharge, or rid them, of the debt. The individual then must subject their property to a bankruptcy trustee or can sell it and redistribute the proceeds to creditors. The debtor has the right to withhold certain properties and essentially make them off limits to creditors as specified byย  Law.

The second most common type of bankruptcy fraud is Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

With Chapter 13 the court approves a repayment plan for an individual to repay creditors out of their future income. This is done over a three to five year period and does not require the individual to discharge surrender any property.

What Our Clients Say

They truly care
Mrs Vallery, who answered the phone took more care and attention to detail than any other law office, that I have called, in 2 years+. She diligently took notes to give to the lawyers and cared about my situation and let me actually tell everything without cutting me short. Out of over 100 law offices, this is rare treatment. Care.

From Self-Representation to Victory in SSDI Case!
My experience with Mario and his staff was outstanding. When everyone said to give up my case with SSDI and after being poorly represented and losing. I had to file my own appeals and represent myself. I literally called every attorney in the book. Then I called Mario cold – I expected one more no! Well, this gentleman took my case and won. He knows the law and cares a lot. I am proud to call him my friend. If you need a professional to help you, call these guys.

A Lifesaver in the Courtroom, Ensuring Freedom with A1 Professionalism
Needed a lifesaver. I had gotten myself into a bad situation and the possibility of going to prison. Through the diligence and hard work done by attorney Alley B., I was able to walk out of that courtroom a free man. No tricks just hard down attorney work. She was an A1 professional and knew every inch of the Law pertaining to my case. For that, I am forever grateful.
