Judicial Estoppel: Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Trap


Judicial estoppel is an awful trap for Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 liquidation account holders. As I would like to think, it is the most noticeably awful trap conceivable.


Here is the manner by which it works. Suppose you document a Chapter 13 and a couple of years into your case, you are included in a pile up. You make the greater part of your installments and your case is released. After a year, you sue the individual that hit you. On the off chance that you neglect to reveal the potential claim in your Chapter 13 case, legal estoppel could keep you from recuperating anything. Zero! Nothing!

How do you avoid the judicial estoppel trap in a bankruptcy case?

In the event that you are in a dynamic insolvency case (Chapter 13 or Chapter 7), you should call your liquidation lawyer on the off chance that you are included in any circumstance that could sometime bring about you documenting a claim. In the event that you don't uncover the claim, you won't have the capacity to recuperate anything. I don't care for this gotcha law however it is a piece of our framework.

On the off chance that you have any inquiries at about this, call your Rome GA bankruptcy lawyer today.
