Utah Chapter 7 Bankruptcy – South Jordan Bankruptcy Attorney


Utah Chapter 7 bankruptcy is designed to help you get rid of your debts in a short period of time. When you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy in Utah, you are required to give up only assets that are not exempted or otherwise protected by federal bankruptcy law. Most people who file for chapter 7 bankruptcy in Utah get to keep all of their assets–including their cars and their home. In exchange for giving up your non-exempt assets (if you have any) the Bankruptcy Court enters an order eliminating most if not all of your pre-bankruptcy debts. Call Salt Lake bankruptcy attorney Andrew B. Clawson at 801-207-8262 to get help today with your chapter 7 bankruptcy case.

Salt Lake Chapter 13 Bankruptcy  – Salt Lake City Bankruptcy Lawyer

In Utah chapter 13 bankruptcy cases, debtors file a chapter 13 “plan” with the bankruptcy court  that requires the debtor to use all of their disposable income to pay back a portion of their pre-bankrputcy debts over a three to five year period.  Most people choose to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy because it allows them to keep valuable non-exempt property, like a home or car, even if they are behind on their payments.  In some chapter 13 bankruptcy cases, it is also possible to get rid of a second mortgage!  When a Utah chapter 13 bankrutpcy debtor has completed all of the payments required under their chapter 13 plan, most if not all of their pre-bankruptcy debts are discharged by the bankruptcy court.  Call Utah bankruptcy attorney Andrew B. Clawson at 801-207-8262 to find out more about how chapter 13 bankruptcy might help you..

    • Jan 12, 2012: Avoiding Tax Refund Headaches in Utah Bankruptcy

      If you're thinking about filing for chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy in Utah, a tax refund can be a big  help or big  headache.  As a Salt Lake, South Jordan and Tooele bankruptcy attorney, I spend a lot of time sitting in meetings where bankruptcy trustees ask bankruptcy debtors about their financial affairs.  And every tax season, I wince every time I see a bankruptcy debtor who is not represented by an attorney learn from the trustee that they are going to have to give the trustee… »

      If the federal government shuts down this Friday, you will will still be able to file for bankruptcy. The federal court system, which includes bankruptcy courts, has a reserve of non-apportioned funds to continue operating even if Congress fails to fund the budget. Although nonessential court personnel might be furloughed, judges, clerks, and other essential workers will remain on the job. Additionally, the Court's electronic filing system, which allows bankruptcy attorneys like me to… »
    • Feb 2, 2011: 2010 Tax Refunds and Utah Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

      During tax season, one of the issues that I discuss with all of my clients in my Salt Lake City bankruptcy practice is what to do with tax refunds.
