I'm being sued for $80,000, should I file bankruptcy?

You don’t understand, we’re living paycheck to paycheck as it is. We do not own a home. We have no assets to seize.
(if you’d like more details on my situation, read my last ?)
If the insurance co. wins this lawsuit against us, we are so screwed. If they garnish my partner’s wages, we’ll be homeless. We have two children to support as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Oh yeah. If we did file BK, do we do it now, or wait until the suit is over?
fine, ill just pay on ,000 the rest of my life, get on welfare, and live in a shack!

i hate the way this country is run…

My business is failing and have over 125K in credit card debt. Should I file BK or try to settle for less?

I’m selling my house and hope to net 25K. Do you think the 6 credit card companies will settle for the 125K down to 25K?

I have another job, but we are living paycheck to paycheck and can’t make these credit card payments. Any advice??
I forgot to mention that I make just over the amount to qualify for a Ch 7 BK and would have to do Ch 13 which I will probably end up having to pay back all the debts anyway..right?

Is it true that you can no longer file for bankruptcy on credit card debt?

I have been told recently that you can no longer file for bankruptcy on credit card debt. I am curious if this is true and if it is; what is someone ,000 in credit card debt trying to get an education and support a family supposed to do? I have one credit card that refuses to work with credit agencies. What do I do now? I know it is my debt, but I was a young single mother and now I am in way over my head; barely living from paycheck to paycheck. What can I do to survive while I try to finish college and support my family?

Is there a cheap way to file for bankruptcy?

My mother is in a bit of a financial pickle. She has credit card debts, I’m not sure of the exact amount, but over ,000, at least, most of it from a failed person business. She feels that the best option right now is to file for bankruptcy. However, she cannot even afford to do that! It costs somewhere near ,600 for the various court and lawyer fees. She cannot save up because we’re already living paycheck to paycheck. I’m only sixteen, so any job I manage to get won’t do much good. None of our relatives are capable of lending her the money. I don’t think self-filing is a possibility. The whole situation seems kind of hopeless. Any ideas?

Bankruptcy?

My mom and my fiance need the cheapest way to file bankruptcy. They both qualify (done consults with lawyer who quoted them at almost ,000 to file). I can use all the help I can. Info on how to get what can be filed against, how to file (by lawyer CHEAP/FREE or doing it yourself), how to get the account info on everything that needs to be filed against (FREE PLEASE). My mom is without a job currently (looking for a new job) and my fiance and I struggle paycheck to paycheck with our baby girl. We need something that is going to get them out from underneath a WHOLE LOT of debt the quickest. We have no money.

THanks,
Belinda
My fiance (not sure on my mom) cannot do ANYTHING to pay back ANY of his debt! It is over ,000 (at least).
Also I see one answer say that "you WILL lose everything" well it is hard to lose everything if they have NOTHING! All he has in his name is a car (not worth anything according to Blue Book Kelly) and a bank account with NO MONEY in it anyway. His ex wife get 55% of his paycheck for current and back child support. I don’t know what is going on with my mom, I don’t ask anymore. But I know how it is with my fiance, we don’t make any money and we don’t have any money. He doesn’t own anything of value!
