Can They Take My Property When I File Bankruptcy?

Orlando Attorney Explains Florida Bankruptcy Exemptions

Some clients filing Bankruptcy fear they will lose all of their property and assets.  In reality, through federal and state exemptions, my clients can keep much of their property, such as their home, car, personal property, retirement plans, and more.

Exemptions differ from State to State and there is also a Federal exemption scheme.  One of my main roles as an Orlando bankruptcy attorney is to evaluate which set of exemptions applies to my client and then utilize those exemptions in such a way that allows my client to keep the property he wants to keep. This is particularly important in situations where my client recently moved to Florida from another state.  An experienced Bankruptcy lawyer can analyze your situation and help decide which set of exemptions will offer you the most property protection and debt relief.

At the Law Offices of K. Hunter Goff, P.A., I provide legal advice to Central Florida residents seeking to find debt relief and retain possession of their property.  Part of my job as your bankruptcy attorney is to apply Florida exemptions to your assets to ensure you keep what you are entitled to keep.

Have You Recently Moved to Florida and are Looking for Debt Relief?

If you moved to Florida within the past two years, you may not be eligible to use Florida’s exemption scheme and may have to use the exemption scheme of your previous State of residence or maybe even the Federal exemption scheme to protect your assets.  These issues can be complex and is why you should hire an experienced Orlando bankruptcy attorney to guide you through the process of claiming the correct exemptions to protect your assets.

Property exemptions in Florida include:

• Personal property
• Wages
• Pensions
• Public benefits
• Alimony and child support
• Qualified Retirement Plans
• Equity in Homestead
