LAKE COUNTY FLORIDA BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEYS
People who have trouble paying their debts sometimes consider bankruptcy as a remedy. A Lake County Florida Bankruptcy Attorney can guide you through this difficult journey. The reason that an individual usually files bankruptcy is to obtain a discharge because the debt load is unsustainable. The discharge, in a lot of cases, will discontinue your personal obligation to repay your debts. When a court discharges the debt, creditors will be unable to harass you about them. The creditors will have no claim on your future income, property or assets.
A bankruptcy discharge will negate your personal obligation to pay the mortgages or liens; however a discharge does not remove the lien or mortgage from the property. To keep your assets, you must continue to make the payments on the home, car or property. It is possible to have a second mortgage removed from your home and our BCN Bankruptcy Attorneys in Lake County can show you the process.
Also, a bankruptcy may allow you options on your home mortgage or car.

IMPORTANT FLORIDA BANKRUPTCY DISCHARGE RULES
You can be denied a discharge. This is rare however if you honestly and completely disclose all of your assets and liabilities. Our Lake County Bankruptcy Attorneys will ask you many questions in order to help you organize all of your assets and liabilities. This will help you make a complete disclosure which is required by Florida bankruptcy law. A primary reason for a denied discharge is the fraudulent transfer of assets to keep it away from your creditors.
