The Truths About Filing An Affordable Bankruptcy

posted by Schlyerlaw on May 15th, 2013 at 2:54 pm

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates is located in Merrillville.  Schlyer & Associates can help you declare an Affordable Bankruptcy.

There are many bankruptcy myths about which can scare you from filing an Affordable Bankruptcy.  MSN recently posted an article about bankruptcy myths that we will share with you.  Should you have any questions about declaring an Affordable Bankruptcy after reading this article, please call us at (219) 757-0225 to set a free meeting with an Affordable Bankruptcy lawyer.

With a mind toward declawing the monster, here are a dozen misconceptions about filing or declaring bankruptcy:

1. Everyone will know I've filed for bankruptcy. Unless you're a prominent person or a major corporation and the filing is picked up by the media, the chances are very good that the only people who will know about a filing are your creditors. While it's true that bankruptcy is a public legal proceeding, the number of people filing is so massive that very few publications have the space, manpower or inclination to run all of them, although some local newspapers do print the names of those who have filed in that community.

2. All debts are wiped out in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You wish. Certain types of debts cannot be discharged, or erased. They include child support and alimony, student loans, restitution for a criminal act and debts incurred as the result of fraud.

3. I'll lose everything I have. This is the misconception that keeps people who really should file for bankruptcy from doing it, says Chris Viale, the chief operating officer of Cambridge Credit Counseling in Massachusetts.

"They think the government will sell everything they have and they'll have to start over in a cardboard box," Viale says.

While bankruptcy laws vary from state to state, every state has exemptions that protect certain kinds of assets, such as your house, your car (up to a certain value), money in qualified retirement plans, household goods and clothing.

"For most people, they'll pass through a bankruptcy case and keep everything they have," says John Hargrave, a bankruptcy trustee in New Jersey. If you have a mortgage or a car loan, you can keep the property as long as you keep making payments (like the rest of us).

4. I'll never get credit again. Quite the contrary. It won't be long before you're getting credit card offers again. They'll just be from subprime lenders that will charge very high interest rates. "There are innumerable companies that will provide credit to you," says California bankruptcy attorney and trustee Howard Ehrenberg.

5. If you're married, both spouses have to file for bankruptcy. Not necessarily. "It's not uncommon for one spouse to have a significant amount of debt in their name only," Hargrave says. However, if spouses have debts they want to discharge that they're both liable for, they should file together. Otherwise, the creditor will simply demand payment for the entire amount from the spouse who didn't file.

6. It's really hard to file for bankruptcy. It's really not. Technically, you don't even need an attorney -- you can do the paperwork without one. However, going through the procedure alone is not recommended.

7. Only deadbeats file for bankruptcy. Most people file for bankruptcy after a life-changing experience, such as a divorce, the loss of a job or a serious illness. They've struggled to pay their bills for months and just keep falling further behind.

8. I don't want to include certain creditors in my filing because it's important to me to pay them back someday, and if the debt is discharged, I can't ever repay them. Bless you for even thinking about such a thing. You're no longer obligated to repay them, but you always have the opportunity. If your conscience won't let you sleep because you didn't pay your debts, there's nothing in the bankruptcy code that prevents you from doing that once you're back on your feet. But it is nearly impossible to leave any account with a balance out of your list of creditors. In general, all creditors receive notification of your bankruptcy filing, whether they are listed in the petition or not.

9. Filing for bankruptcy will improve my credit rating because all those debts will be gone. Filing for bankruptcy is the worst "negative" you can have on your credit report. Unlike other negatives, which stay on your report for seven years, bankruptcy can be there for 10 years, but you do get to rebuild your credit eventually.

10. You can't get rid of back taxes through bankruptcy. Generally speaking, this is true. However, there is such a thing as tax bankruptcy.

11. You can only file for bankruptcy once. The truth is, you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy only once every eight years, says Justin Harelik, Bankrate's bankruptcy adviser. For Chapter 13 reorganization, you can file more often than that.

Of course, that doesn't make it a good idea.

"Multiple bankruptcies are really bad," Rosenberg says. "Many people get into the habit of once they've done it, it becomes a way of life. This is not good for your karma." Or your credit rating.

12. I can max out all my credit cards, file for bankruptcy and never pay for the things I bought.That's called fraud, and bankruptcy judges can get really cranky about it.

Creditor Problems? Debt Collectors Calling? Things To Consider Before Filing An Affordable Bankruptcy

posted by Schlyerlaw on Mar 29th, 2013 at 1:20 pm

Receiving calls from debt collectors?  If you’re trying to get creditors to stop calling, you may want to change your phone number instead of immediately filing for bankruptcy. When filing bankruptcy, timing is everything. Waiting just a few weeks could be the difference of having recently transferred property seized or having extra debt tacked on to your bills.

Here are five situations where it’s better to wait before filing an Affordable Bankruptcy with the law firm of Schlyer & Associates.

1. If you’re going to have more debt soon. When you file bankruptcy, all of your debts leading up to that point are exonerated. But if you know you are going to have an expense in the near future, like a surgery planned months in advance, wait to file until after the surgery is over. If you file before, you will still have to pay the costs of the surgery.

2. If your income just dropped. When you originally file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the court will look to your income over the past six months to see if you have the means to pay off your debts. If you were recently laid off but your previous income was high, you may only be eligible for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which still requires you pay off some portion of the debt. If you wait to show that your income has significantly decreased, you will be able to qualify for Chapter 7.

3. If you have an unspent tax refund. Wait to file until after you spend your tax refund because once you file, it will become part of your bankruptcy estate and will be used to pay off creditors. But when you use it, make sure you spend your refund on necessities like a mortgage payment, utilities, food, clothing, medical care, car payments or education. If you spend it on anything else, it will affect your case.

4. If you’ve bought luxury goods within 90 days of filing. If you spend $550 on luxury items within 90 days of filing for bankruptcy, the court will question if you ever intended on paying the debt back. Once you file for bankruptcy, your debt could be denied discharge because of bad faith and you will still have to pay back the debt during bankruptcy.

5. If you’re trying to get rid of student loans. Since the Bankruptcy Consumer and Protection Act passed in 2005, student loans are no longer forgiven in bankruptcy. But more graduates than ever – 13.4 percent – are defaulting on their loans just three years after starting to pay them off, according to the most recent Department of Education Statistics available. If your loans go into collection, stay calm. Don’t panic and file Chapter 7 bankruptcy because it simply won’t help.

Start Spring 2013 with the resolution to become debt free by filing an Affordable Bankruptcy.

Tips To Keep Your Vehicle In Good Condition For Winter Driving

posted by Schlyerlaw on Mar 25th, 2013 at 2:45 pm

Spring weather is almost here.  However, winter driving is a part of our lives.  The Northwest Indiana personal injury law firm, Schlyer & Associates, the Aggressive Trial Lawyers, offers a few tips to keep your car in good working condition this winter season.

Clean Your Car

When the temperatures are warm enough, make time to wash your vehicle.  It washes the salt off of the body of your car and cleans your windows, allowing you to see better while driving.

Don't forget to check under the hood.  Little critters / animals may want to make a home in your warm engine compartment.

Check Your Tires

So-called "all-season" tires have been on the market for decades. Coupled with front-wheel-drive and anti-skid systems, they have allowed many folks to avoid mounting a true snow tire for the winter months. But watch out for low-profile / wide tires - they tend not work well in the snow.

Check Your Wipers

Wiper blades tend to last about a year.   Also, a simple trick.  If snow or ice is in the forecast, pop up the wipers so they're not touching the windshield. This little trick will make it easier to scrape your windshield and reduce the chance that you burn out the wiper motor by having them turn on while the blades are frozen in place.

How Is Your Battery?

Winter puts more stress on your battery, particularly if you park your car outdoors.

Avoid the sinking feeling of hearing nothing when you hit the ignition with a proactive check of your battery and charging system now. Repair shops don't usually charge very much to load-test your battery, and some car-parts stores will do it for free.

If you find out your battery's going south, you can replace it at your convenience, instead of being at the mercy of whomever your dead car’s been towed to. Note that some big-box stores such as Costco offer a good price on batteries for those of you willing to change one yourself (not usually all that hard, though batteries are heavy.)

Check Under Your Vehicle

To improve aerodynamics and save fuel, today’s cars are equipped with increasingly elaborate underbody panels and low-hanging air dams. 

These can be vulnerable to damage, and driving over a snowdrift in the winter could turn a small problem into a more expensive one.

So before the ground’s too chilly to lie on, take a look under the car, starting from the front, to see if there's anything loose flapping about. Maybe you can just pop it back into place. Maybe a zip tie will take care of it.I

Is Your Antifreeze Ready To Go?

If you’ve missed a service interval or have another reason to doubt your coolant, go ahead and have it "flushed and filled." Just make sure your mechanic uses a compatible coolant to refill your car. Some coolants, such as Prestone's Extended Life, work for any car.

If your car has moved to a much colder climate and you’re concerned that your coolant might not be up to the deep freeze, you can check its effectiveness with a simple, under-$10 tester from the car-parts store.

Tire Pressure - Is It Right?

Here are two good reasons to get down there with the gauge and unscrew the valve caps as the weather cools:

1) Tires lose a pound of pressure for every drop of 10 degrees Fahrenheit. 

2) An underinflated tire won't "bite" through snow down to the pavement as well as one at pressure. It's similar to hydroplaning on water — and just as dangerous.

Don’t forget to put the valve caps back on when you're done. Letting in moisture, which then freezes, could let the valve core leak out air.

Emergency Survival Kit (of Some Sort)

Everyone should have a space blanket in the car, tucked in the glove compartment or some other storage space in reach of the driver.

The most complete survival kit in the world won’t do a bit of good if you're upside down in a car you can’t get out of and the kit’s in the trunk.

The shiny space blanket's ability to keep you warm could be a lifesaver — and it takes up virtually no space and costs less than $10.

Next things we’d add:

• Whistle 
• Plastic bag for gathering snow for water
• Plumber's candle & lighter
• Single-edged razor blade (cut up your upholstery for insulation)
• Empty metal soup can (for melting snow with the candle)

You can — and perhaps should — keep going (some people suggest packing a wordy novel). The more rural and remote your roads, the more you’ll want.

Clean & Wax Your Headlights

Okay, we admit it's a little detail, but in winter’s gloom and short days, every last lumen you can squeeze out of your headlamps is going to improve your safety. 

Here's an easy two-minute drill: Make sure the headlamps are clean of dirt, rub car wax (any type will do) on the lamps, let it dry and buff it off. And then apply a second coat. For bonus points, do the taillights.

The slippery surface you leave behind will be less likely to build up an "icicle" coat when road slush refreezes on your car — and will make it easier to remove it if it does.

There Are Many Myths About Bankruptcy - Don't Be Scared - See A New Financial Beginning After Filing An Affordable Bankruptcy Today

posted by Schlyerlaw on Mar 4th, 2013 at 8:38 am

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates is located in Merrillville.  Schlyer & Associates can help you declare an Affordable Bankruptcy.

There are many bankruptcy myths about which can scare you from filing an Affordable Bankruptcy.  MSN recently posted an article about bankruptcy myths that we will share with you.  Should you have any questions about declaring an Affordable Bankruptcy after reading this article, please call us at (219) 757-0225 to set a free meeting with an Affordable Bankruptcy lawyer.

With a mind toward declawing the monster, here are a dozen misconceptions about filing or declaring bankruptcy:

1. Everyone will know I've filed for bankruptcy. Unless you're a prominent person or a major corporation and the filing is picked up by the media, the chances are very good that the only people who will know about a filing are your creditors. While it's true that bankruptcy is a public legal proceeding, the number of people filing is so massive that very few publications have the space, manpower or inclination to run all of them, although some local newspapers do print the names of those who have filed in that community.

2. All debts are wiped out in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You wish. Certain types of debts cannot be discharged, or erased. They include child support and alimony, student loans, restitution for a criminal act and debts incurred as the result of fraud.

3. I'll lose everything I have. This is the misconception that keeps people who really should file for bankruptcy from doing it, says Chris Viale, the chief operating officer of Cambridge Credit Counseling in Massachusetts.

"They think the government will sell everything they have and they'll have to start over in a cardboard box," Viale says.

While bankruptcy laws vary from state to state, every state has exemptions that protect certain kinds of assets, such as your house, your car (up to a certain value), money in qualified retirement plans, household goods and clothing.

"For most people, they'll pass through a bankruptcy case and keep everything they have," says John Hargrave, a bankruptcy trustee in New Jersey. If you have a mortgage or a car loan, you can keep the property as long as you keep making payments (like the rest of us).

4. I'll never get credit again. Quite the contrary. It won't be long before you're getting credit card offers again. They'll just be from subprime lenders that will charge very high interest rates. "There are innumerable companies that will provide credit to you," says California bankruptcy attorney and trustee Howard Ehrenberg.

5. If you're married, both spouses have to file for bankruptcy. Not necessarily. "It's not uncommon for one spouse to have a significant amount of debt in their name only," Hargrave says. However, if spouses have debts they want to discharge that they're both liable for, they should file together. Otherwise, the creditor will simply demand payment for the entire amount from the spouse who didn't file.

6. It's really hard to file for bankruptcy. It's really not. Technically, you don't even need an attorney -- you can do the paperwork without one. However, going through the procedure alone is not recommended.

7. Only deadbeats file for bankruptcy. Most people file for bankruptcy after a life-changing experience, such as a divorce, the loss of a job or a serious illness. They've struggled to pay their bills for months and just keep falling further behind.

8. I don't want to include certain creditors in my filing because it's important to me to pay them back someday, and if the debt is discharged, I can't ever repay them. Bless you for even thinking about such a thing. You're no longer obligated to repay them, but you always have the opportunity. If your conscience won't let you sleep because you didn't pay your debts, there's nothing in the bankruptcy code that prevents you from doing that once you're back on your feet. But it is nearly impossible to leave any account with a balance out of your list of creditors. In general, all creditors receive notification of your bankruptcy filing, whether they are listed in the petition or not.

9. Filing for bankruptcy will improve my credit rating because all those debts will be gone. Filing for bankruptcy is the worst "negative" you can have on your credit report. Unlike other negatives, which stay on your report for seven years, bankruptcy can be there for 10 years, but you do get to rebuild your credit eventually.

10. You can't get rid of back taxes through bankruptcy. Generally speaking, this is true. However, there is such a thing as tax bankruptcy.

11. You can only file for bankruptcy once. The truth is, you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy only once every eight years, says Justin Harelik, Bankrate's bankruptcy adviser. For Chapter 13 reorganization, you can file more often than that.

Of course, that doesn't make it a good idea.

"Multiple bankruptcies are really bad," Rosenberg says. "Many people get into the habit of once they've done it, it becomes a way of life. This is not good for your karma." Or your credit rating.

12. I can max out all my credit cards, file for bankruptcy and never pay for the things I bought.That's called fraud, and bankruptcy judges can get really cranky about it.

Worried About Filing Bankruptcy? Bankruptcy Myths Revealed.

posted by Schlyerlaw on Nov 20th, 2012 at 8:50 am

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates is located in Merrillville.  Schlyer & Associates can help you declare an Affordable Bankruptcy.

There are many bankruptcy myths about which can scare you from filing an Affordable Bankruptcy.  MSN recently posted an article about bankruptcy myths that we will share with you.  Should you have any questions about declaring an Affordable Bankruptcy after reading this article, please call us at (219) 757-0225 to set a free meeting with an Affordable Bankruptcy lawyer.

With a mind toward declawing the monster, here are a dozen misconceptions about filing or declaring bankruptcy:

1. Everyone will know I've filed for bankruptcy. Unless you're a prominent person or a major corporation and the filing is picked up by the media, the chances are very good that the only people who will know about a filing are your creditors. While it's true that bankruptcy is a public legal proceeding, the number of people filing is so massive that very few publications have the space, manpower or inclination to run all of them, although some local newspapers do print the names of those who have filed in that community.

2. All debts are wiped out in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You wish. Certain types of debts cannot be discharged, or erased. They include child support and alimony, student loans, restitution for a criminal act and debts incurred as the result of fraud.

3. I'll lose everything I have. This is the misconception that keeps people who really should file for bankruptcy from doing it, says Chris Viale, the chief operating officer of Cambridge Credit Counseling in Massachusetts.

"They think the government will sell everything they have and they'll have to start over in a cardboard box," Viale says.

While bankruptcy laws vary from state to state, every state has exemptions that protect certain kinds of assets, such as your house, your car (up to a certain value), money in qualified retirement plans, household goods and clothing.

"For most people, they'll pass through a bankruptcy case and keep everything they have," says John Hargrave, a bankruptcy trustee in New Jersey. If you have a mortgage or a car loan, you can keep the property as long as you keep making payments (like the rest of us).

4. I'll never get credit again. Quite the contrary. It won't be long before you're getting credit card offers again. They'll just be from subprime lenders that will charge very high interest rates. "There are innumerable companies that will provide credit to you," says California bankruptcy attorney and trustee Howard Ehrenberg.

5. If you're married, both spouses have to file for bankruptcy. Not necessarily. "It's not uncommon for one spouse to have a significant amount of debt in their name only," Hargrave says. However, if spouses have debts they want to discharge that they're both liable for, they should file together. Otherwise, the creditor will simply demand payment for the entire amount from the spouse who didn't file.

6. It's really hard to file for bankruptcy. It's really not. Technically, you don't even need an attorney -- you can do the paperwork without one. However, going through the procedure alone is not recommended.

7. Only deadbeats file for bankruptcy. Most people file for bankruptcy after a life-changing experience, such as a divorce, the loss of a job or a serious illness. They've struggled to pay their bills for months and just keep falling further behind.

8. I don't want to include certain creditors in my filing because it's important to me to pay them back someday, and if the debt is discharged, I can't ever repay them. Bless you for even thinking about such a thing. You're no longer obligated to repay them, but you always have the opportunity. If your conscience won't let you sleep because you didn't pay your debts, there's nothing in the bankruptcy code that prevents you from doing that once you're back on your feet. But it is nearly impossible to leave any account with a balance out of your list of creditors. In general, all creditors receive notification of your bankruptcy filing, whether they are listed in the petition or not.

9. Filing for bankruptcy will improve my credit rating because all those debts will be gone. Filing for bankruptcy is the worst "negative" you can have on your credit report. Unlike other negatives, which stay on your report for seven years, bankruptcy can be there for 10 years, but you do get to rebuild your credit eventually.

10. You can't get rid of back taxes through bankruptcy. Generally speaking, this is true. However, there is such a thing as tax bankruptcy.

11. You can only file for bankruptcy once. The truth is, you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy only once every eight years, says Justin Harelik, Bankrate's bankruptcy adviser. For Chapter 13 reorganization, you can file more often than that.

Of course, that doesn't make it a good idea.

"Multiple bankruptcies are really bad," Rosenberg says. "Many people get into the habit of once they've done it, it becomes a way of life. This is not good for your karma." Or your credit rating.

12. I can max out all my credit cards, file for bankruptcy and never pay for the things I bought.That's called fraud, and bankruptcy judges can get really cranky about it.

Help, I Need To File Bankruptcy. Does An Affordable Bankruptcy Exist?

posted by Schlyerlaw on Feb 26th, 2012 at 8:40 pm

Yes.  An Affordable Bankruptcy does exist at Schlyer & Associates.  We can help you declare an Affordable Bankruptcy.  With $100, you can begin the process to re-start your financial life.

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates is located in Merrillville.  Schlyer & Associates can help you declare an Affordable Bankruptcy.

There are many bankruptcy myths about which can scare you from filing an Affordable Bankruptcy.  MSN recently posted an article about bankruptcy myths that we will share with you.  Should you have any questions about declaring an Affordable Bankruptcy after reading this article, please call us at (219) 757-0225 to set a free meeting with an Affordable Bankruptcy lawyer.

With a mind toward declawing the monster, here are a dozen misconceptions about filing or declaring bankruptcy:

1. Everyone will know I've filed for bankruptcy. Unless you're a prominent person or a major corporation and the filing is picked up by the media, the chances are very good that the only people who will know about a filing are your creditors. While it's true that bankruptcy is a public legal proceeding, the number of people filing is so massive that very few publications have the space, manpower or inclination to run all of them, although some local newspapers do print the names of those who have filed in that community.

2. All debts are wiped out in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You wish. Certain types of debts cannot be discharged, or erased. They include child support and alimony, student loans, restitution for a criminal act and debts incurred as the result of fraud.

3. I'll lose everything I have. This is the misconception that keeps people who really should file for bankruptcy from doing it, says Chris Viale, the chief operating officer of Cambridge Credit Counseling in Massachusetts.

"They think the government will sell everything they have and they'll have to start over in a cardboard box," Viale says.

While bankruptcy laws vary from state to state, every state has exemptions that protect certain kinds of assets, such as your house, your car (up to a certain value), money in qualified retirement plans, household goods and clothing.

"For most people, they'll pass through a bankruptcy case and keep everything they have," says John Hargrave, a bankruptcy trustee in New Jersey. If you have a mortgage or a car loan, you can keep the property as long as you keep making payments (like the rest of us).

4. I'll never get credit again. Quite the contrary. It won't be long before you're getting credit card offers again. They'll just be from subprime lenders that will charge very high interest rates. "There are innumerable companies that will provide credit to you," says California bankruptcy attorney and trustee Howard Ehrenberg.

5. If you're married, both spouses have to file for bankruptcy. Not necessarily. "It's not uncommon for one spouse to have a significant amount of debt in their name only," Hargrave says. However, if spouses have debts they want to discharge that they're both liable for, they should file together. Otherwise, the creditor will simply demand payment for the entire amount from the spouse who didn't file.

6. It's really hard to file for bankruptcy. It's really not. Technically, you don't even need an attorney -- you can do the paperwork without one. However, going through the procedure alone is not recommended.

7. Only deadbeats file for bankruptcy. Most people file for bankruptcy after a life-changing experience, such as a divorce, the loss of a job or a serious illness. They've struggled to pay their bills for months and just keep falling further behind.

8. I don't want to include certain creditors in my filing because it's important to me to pay them back someday, and if the debt is discharged, I can't ever repay them. Bless you for even thinking about such a thing. You're no longer obligated to repay them, but you always have the opportunity. If your conscience won't let you sleep because you didn't pay your debts, there's nothing in the bankruptcy code that prevents you from doing that once you're back on your feet. But it is nearly impossible to leave any account with a balance out of your list of creditors. In general, all creditors receive notification of your bankruptcy filing, whether they are listed in the petition or not.

9. Filing for bankruptcy will improve my credit rating because all those debts will be gone. Filing for bankruptcy is the worst "negative" you can have on your credit report. Unlike other negatives, which stay on your report for seven years, bankruptcy can be there for 10 years, but you do get to rebuild your credit eventually.

10. You can't get rid of back taxes through bankruptcy. Generally speaking, this is true. However, there is such a thing as tax bankruptcy.

11. You can only file for bankruptcy once. The truth is, you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy only once every eight years, says Justin Harelik, Bankrate's bankruptcy adviser. For Chapter 13 reorganization, you can file more often than that.

Of course, that doesn't make it a good idea.

"Multiple bankruptcies are really bad," Rosenberg says. "Many people get into the habit of once they've done it, it becomes a way of life. This is not good for your karma." Or your credit rating.

12. I can max out all my credit cards, file for bankruptcy and never pay for the things I bought.That's called fraud, and bankruptcy judges can get really cranky about it.

Tips To Keep Your Vehicle In Good Condition For Winter Driving

posted by Schlyerlaw on Jan 29th, 2012 at 4:47 pm

The Northwest Indiana personal injury law firm, Schlyer & Associates, the Aggressive Trial Lawyers, offers a few tips to keep your car in good working condition this winter season.

Clean Your Car

When the temperatures are warm enough, make time to wash your vehicle.  It washes the salt off of the body of your car and cleans your windows, allowing you to see better while driving.

Don't forget to check under the hood.  Little critters / animals may want to make a home in your warm engine compartment.

Check Your Tires

So-called "all-season" tires have been on the market for decades. Coupled with front-wheel-drive and anti-skid systems, they have allowed many folks to avoid mounting a true snow tire for the winter months. But watch out for low-profile / wide tires - they tend not work well in the snow.

Check Your Wipers

Wiper blades tend to last about a year.   Also, a simple trick.  If snow or ice is in the forecast, pop up the wipers so they're not touching the windshield. This little trick will make it easier to scrape your windshield and reduce the chance that you burn out the wiper motor by having them turn on while the blades are frozen in place.

How Is Your Battery?

Winter puts more stress on your battery, particularly if you park your car outdoors.

Avoid the sinking feeling of hearing nothing when you hit the ignition with a proactive check of your battery and charging system now. Repair shops don't usually charge very much to load-test your battery, and some car-parts stores will do it for free.

If you find out your battery's going south, you can replace it at your convenience, instead of being at the mercy of whomever your dead car’s been towed to. Note that some big-box stores such as Costco offer a good price on batteries for those of you willing to change one yourself (not usually all that hard, though batteries are heavy.)

Check Under Your Vehicle

To improve aerodynamics and save fuel, today’s cars are equipped with increasingly elaborate underbody panels and low-hanging air dams. 

These can be vulnerable to damage, and driving over a snowdrift in the winter could turn a small problem into a more expensive one.

So before the ground’s too chilly to lie on, take a look under the car, starting from the front, to see if there's anything loose flapping about. Maybe you can just pop it back into place. Maybe a zip tie will take care of it.I

Is Your Antifreeze Ready To Go?

If you’ve missed a service interval or have another reason to doubt your coolant, go ahead and have it "flushed and filled." Just make sure your mechanic uses a compatible coolant to refill your car. Some coolants, such as Prestone's Extended Life, work for any car.

If your car has moved to a much colder climate and you’re concerned that your coolant might not be up to the deep freeze, you can check its effectiveness with a simple, under-$10 tester from the car-parts store.

Tire Pressure - Is It Right?

Here are two good reasons to get down there with the gauge and unscrew the valve caps as the weather cools:

1) Tires lose a pound of pressure for every drop of 10 degrees Fahrenheit. 

2) An underinflated tire won't "bite" through snow down to the pavement as well as one at pressure. It's similar to hydroplaning on water — and just as dangerous.

Don’t forget to put the valve caps back on when you're done. Letting in moisture, which then freezes, could let the valve core leak out air.

Emergency Survival Kit (of Some Sort)

Everyone should have a space blanket in the car, tucked in the glove compartment or some other storage space in reach of the driver.

The most complete survival kit in the world won’t do a bit of good if you're upside down in a car you can’t get out of and the kit’s in the trunk.

The shiny space blanket's ability to keep you warm could be a lifesaver — and it takes up virtually no space and costs less than $10.

Next things we’d add:

• Whistle 
• Plastic bag for gathering snow for water
• Plumber's candle & lighter
• Single-edged razor blade (cut up your upholstery for insulation)
• Empty metal soup can (for melting snow with the candle)

You can — and perhaps should — keep going (some people suggest packing a wordy novel). The more rural and remote your roads, the more you’ll want.

Clean & Wax Your Headlights

Okay, we admit it's a little detail, but in winter’s gloom and short days, every last lumen you can squeeze out of your headlamps is going to improve your safety. 

Here's an easy two-minute drill: Make sure the headlamps are clean of dirt, rub car wax (any type will do) on the lamps, let it dry and buff it off. And then apply a second coat. For bonus points, do the taillights.

The slippery surface you leave behind will be less likely to build up an "icicle" coat when road slush refreezes on your car — and will make it easier to remove it if it does.

Myths About Filing Bankruptcy

posted by Schlyerlaw on Jan 24th, 2012 at 8:04 am

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates is located in Merrillville.  Schlyer & Associates can help you declare an Affordable Bankruptcy.

There are many bankruptcy myths about which can scare you from filing an Affordable Bankruptcy.  MSN recently posted an article about bankruptcy myths that we will share with you.  Should you have any questions about declaring an Affordable Bankruptcy after reading this article, please call us at (219) 757-0225 to set a free meeting with an Affordable Bankruptcy lawyer.

With a mind toward declawing the monster, here are a dozen misconceptions about filing or declaring bankruptcy:

1. Everyone will know I've filed for bankruptcy. Unless you're a prominent person or a major corporation and the filing is picked up by the media, the chances are very good that the only people who will know about a filing are your creditors. While it's true that bankruptcy is a public legal proceeding, the number of people filing is so massive that very few publications have the space, manpower or inclination to run all of them, although some local newspapers do print the names of those who have filed in that community.

2. All debts are wiped out in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You wish. Certain types of debts cannot be discharged, or erased. They include child support and alimony, student loans, restitution for a criminal act and debts incurred as the result of fraud.

3. I'll lose everything I have. This is the misconception that keeps people who really should file for bankruptcy from doing it, says Chris Viale, the chief operating officer of Cambridge Credit Counseling in Massachusetts.

"They think the government will sell everything they have and they'll have to start over in a cardboard box," Viale says.

While bankruptcy laws vary from state to state, every state has exemptions that protect certain kinds of assets, such as your house, your car (up to a certain value), money in qualified retirement plans, household goods and clothing.

"For most people, they'll pass through a bankruptcy case and keep everything they have," says John Hargrave, a bankruptcy trustee in New Jersey. If you have a mortgage or a car loan, you can keep the property as long as you keep making payments (like the rest of us).

4. I'll never get credit again. Quite the contrary. It won't be long before you're getting credit card offers again. They'll just be from subprime lenders that will charge very high interest rates. "There are innumerable companies that will provide credit to you," says California bankruptcy attorney and trustee Howard Ehrenberg.

5. If you're married, both spouses have to file for bankruptcy. Not necessarily. "It's not uncommon for one spouse to have a significant amount of debt in their name only," Hargrave says. However, if spouses have debts they want to discharge that they're both liable for, they should file together. Otherwise, the creditor will simply demand payment for the entire amount from the spouse who didn't file.

6. It's really hard to file for bankruptcy. It's really not. Technically, you don't even need an attorney -- you can do the paperwork without one. However, going through the procedure alone is not recommended.

7. Only deadbeats file for bankruptcy. Most people file for bankruptcy after a life-changing experience, such as a divorce, the loss of a job or a serious illness. They've struggled to pay their bills for months and just keep falling further behind.

8. I don't want to include certain creditors in my filing because it's important to me to pay them back someday, and if the debt is discharged, I can't ever repay them. Bless you for even thinking about such a thing. You're no longer obligated to repay them, but you always have the opportunity. If your conscience won't let you sleep because you didn't pay your debts, there's nothing in the bankruptcy code that prevents you from doing that once you're back on your feet. But it is nearly impossible to leave any account with a balance out of your list of creditors. In general, all creditors receive notification of your bankruptcy filing, whether they are listed in the petition or not.

9. Filing for bankruptcy will improve my credit rating because all those debts will be gone. Filing for bankruptcy is the worst "negative" you can have on your credit report. Unlike other negatives, which stay on your report for seven years, bankruptcy can be there for 10 years, but you do get to rebuild your credit eventually.

10. You can't get rid of back taxes through bankruptcy. Generally speaking, this is true. However, there is such a thing as tax bankruptcy.

11. You can only file for bankruptcy once. The truth is, you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy only once every eight years, says Justin Harelik, Bankrate's bankruptcy adviser. For Chapter 13 reorganization, you can file more often than that.

Of course, that doesn't make it a good idea.

"Multiple bankruptcies are really bad," Rosenberg says. "Many people get into the habit of once they've done it, it becomes a way of life. This is not good for your karma." Or your credit rating.

12. I can max out all my credit cards, file for bankruptcy and never pay for the things I bought.That's called fraud, and bankruptcy judges can get really cranky about it.

Due to Shock Hazard Big Lots Recalls Floor Lamps

posted by Schlyerlaw on Jan 19th, 2012 at 4:25 pm

 

The Aggressive Trial Lawyers, Schlyer & Associates, based in Merrillville, Indiana is warning of a recall issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission of 43,700 Five-Light Floor Lamps sold by Big Lots stores.

Bankruptcy Myths You Should Know About

posted by Schlyerlaw on Nov 19th, 2011 at 10:15 am

 

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates based in Merrillville, Indiana is here to help you file bankruptcy.

There are many bankruptcy myths that scare many people.  MSN recently posted an article about bankruptcy myths that we will share with you?

With a mind toward declawing the monster, here are a dozen misconceptions about bankruptcy:

1. Everyone will know I've filed for bankruptcy. Unless you're a prominent person or a major corporation and the filing is picked up by the media, the chances are very good that the only people who will know about a filing are your creditors. While it's true that bankruptcy is a public legal proceeding, the number of people filing is so massive that very few publications have the space, manpower or inclination to run all of them, although some local newspapers do print the names of those who have filed in that community.

2. All debts are wiped out in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You wish. Certain types of debts cannot be discharged, or erased. They include child support and alimony, student loans, restitution for a criminal act and debts incurred as the result of fraud.

3. I'll lose everything I have. This is the misconception that keeps people who really should file for bankruptcy from doing it, says Chris Viale, the chief operating officer of Cambridge Credit Counseling in Massachusetts.

"They think the government will sell everything they have and they'll have to start over in a cardboard box," Viale says.

While bankruptcy laws vary from state to state, every state has exemptions that protect certain kinds of assets, such as your house, your car (up to a certain value), money in qualified retirement plans, household goods and clothing.

"For most people, they'll pass through a bankruptcy case and keep everything they have," says John Hargrave, a bankruptcy trustee in New Jersey. If you have a mortgage or a car loan, you can keep the property as long as you keep making payments (like the rest of us).

4. I'll never get credit again. Quite the contrary. It won't be long before you're getting credit card offers again. They'll just be from subprime lenders that will charge very high interest rates. "There are innumerable companies that will provide credit to you," says California bankruptcy attorney and trustee Howard Ehrenberg.

5. If you're married, both spouses have to file for bankruptcy. Not necessarily. "It's not uncommon for one spouse to have a significant amount of debt in their name only," Hargrave says. However, if spouses have debts they want to discharge that they're both liable for, they should file together. Otherwise, the creditor will simply demand payment for the entire amount from the spouse who didn't file.

6. It's really hard to file for bankruptcy. It's really not. Technically, you don't even need an attorney -- you can do the paperwork without one. However, going through the procedure alone is not recommended.

7. Only deadbeats file for bankruptcy. Most people file for bankruptcy after a life-changing experience, such as a divorce, the loss of a job or a serious illness. They've struggled to pay their bills for months and just keep falling further behind.

8. I don't want to include certain creditors in my filing because it's important to me to pay them back someday, and if the debt is discharged, I can't ever repay them. Bless you for even thinking about such a thing. You're no longer obligated to repay them, but you always have the opportunity. If your conscience won't let you sleep because you didn't pay your debts, there's nothing in the bankruptcy code that prevents you from doing that once you're back on your feet. But it is nearly impossible to leave any account with a balance out of your list of creditors. In general, all creditors receive notification of your bankruptcy filing, whether they are listed in the petition or not.

9. Filing for bankruptcy will improve my credit rating because all those debts will be gone. Filing for bankruptcy is the worst "negative" you can have on your credit report. Unlike other negatives, which stay on your report for seven years, bankruptcy can be there for 10 years, but you do get to rebuild your credit eventually.

10. You can't get rid of back taxes through bankruptcy. Generally speaking, this is true. However, there is such a thing as tax bankruptcy.

11. You can only file for bankruptcy once. The truth is, you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy only once every eight years, says Justin Harelik, Bankrate's bankruptcy adviser. For Chapter 13 reorganization, you can file more often than that.

Of course, that doesn't make it a good idea.

"Multiple bankruptcies are really bad," Rosenberg says. "Many people get into the habit of once they've done it, it becomes a way of life. This is not good for your karma." Or your credit rating.

12. I can max out all my credit cards, file for bankruptcy and never pay for the things I bought.That's called fraud, and bankruptcy judges can get really cranky about it.

Prepare Your Vehicle For The Winter

posted by Schlyerlaw on Nov 5th, 2011 at 10:55 am

The Northwest Indiana personal injury law firm, Schlyer & Associates, the Aggressive Trial Lawyers, offers a few tips to prepare your vehicle for the upcoming winter season.

Clean Your Car

Each fall, we rake our leaves, but do not forget to clean the leaves off of your car.  When yard products (leaves, twigs, etc) build up in areas of your car where water is supposed to flow out, you can get leaks or corrosion.

The base of your windshield is a classic spot where this can happen.

If you have a sunroof, open it up and poke around in there, too. Sunroofs have drains that flow water that sneaks past the seals down to the ground. Leaf gunk in there can make for wet headliners or worse.

Don't forget to check under the hood.  Little critters / animals may want to make a home in your warm engine compartment.  

Check Your Tires

So-called "all-season" tires have been on the market for decades. Coupled with front-wheel-drive and anti-skid systems, they have allowed many folks to avoid mounting a true snow tire for the winter months. But watch out for low-profile / wide tires - they tend not work well in the snow.

Check Your Wipers

Wiper blades tend to last about a year.   Also, a simple trick.  If snow or ice is in the forecast, pop up the wipers so they're not touching the windshield. This little trick will make it easier to scrape your windshield and reduce the chance that you burn out the wiper motor by having them turn on while the blades are frozen in place.

How Is Your Battery?

Winter puts more stress on your battery, particularly if you park your car outdoors.

Avoid the sinking feeling of hearing nothing when you hit the ignition with a proactive check of your battery and charging system now. Repair shops don't usually charge very much to load-test your battery, and some car-parts stores will do it for free.

If you find out your battery's going south, you can replace it at your convenience, instead of being at the mercy of whomever your dead car’s been towed to. Note that some big-box stores such as Costco offer a good price on batteries for those of you willing to change one yourself (not usually all that hard, though batteries are heavy.)

Check Under Your Vehicle

To improve aerodynamics and save fuel, today’s cars are equipped with increasingly elaborate underbody panels and low-hanging air dams. 

These can be vulnerable to damage, and driving over a snowdrift in the winter could turn a small problem into a more expensive one.

So before the ground’s too chilly to lie on, take a look under the car, starting from the front, to see if there's anything loose flapping about. Maybe you can just pop it back into place. Maybe a zip tie will take care of it.I

Is Your Antifreeze Ready To Go?

If you’ve missed a service interval or have another reason to doubt your coolant, go ahead and have it "flushed and filled." Just make sure your mechanic uses a compatible coolant to refill your car. Some coolants, such as Prestone's Extended Life, work for any car.

If your car has moved to a much colder climate and you’re concerned that your coolant might not be up to the deep freeze, you can check its effectiveness with a simple, under-$10 tester from the car-parts store.

Tire Pressure - Is It Right?

Here are two good reasons to get down there with the gauge and unscrew the valve caps as the weather cools:

1) Tires lose a pound of pressure for every drop of 10 degrees Fahrenheit. 

2) An underinflated tire won't "bite" through snow down to the pavement as well as one at pressure. It's similar to hydroplaning on water — and just as dangerous.

Don’t forget to put the valve caps back on when you're done. Letting in moisture, which then freezes, could let the valve core leak out air.

Emergency Survival Kit (of Some Sort)

Everyone should have a space blanket in the car, tucked in the glove compartment or some other storage space in reach of the driver.

The most complete survival kit in the world won’t do a bit of good if you're upside down in a car you can’t get out of and the kit’s in the trunk.

The shiny space blanket's ability to keep you warm could be a lifesaver — and it takes up virtually no space and costs less than $10.

Next things we’d add:

• Whistle 
• Plastic bag for gathering snow for water
• Plumber's candle & lighter
• Single-edged razor blade (cut up your upholstery for insulation)
• Empty metal soup can (for melting snow with the candle)

You can — and perhaps should — keep going (some people suggest packing a wordy novel). The more rural and remote your roads, the more you’ll want.

Clean & Wax Your Headlights

Okay, we admit it's a little detail, but in winter’s gloom and short days, every last lumen you can squeeze out of your headlamps is going to improve your safety. 

Here's an easy two-minute drill: Make sure the headlamps are clean of dirt, rub car wax (any type will do) on the lamps, let it dry and buff it off. And then apply a second coat. For bonus points, do the taillights.

The slippery surface you leave behind will be less likely to build up an "icicle" coat when road slush refreezes on your car — and will make it easier to remove it if it does.

What should you do if you were injured and it was not your fault?

If you have been injured, please contact the law firm of Schlyer & Associates.  The attorneys at Schlyer & Associates have experience in many types of injury and product cases and can represent you in your claim.

Should You File An Affordable Bankruptcy?

posted by Schlyerlaw on Oct 28th, 2011 at 1:57 pm

The Northwest Indiana law firm of Schlyer & Associates can help you file an Affordable Bankruptcy.   We help people declare an Affordable Bankruptcy in Lake County and Porter County, Indiana.

Which type of Affordable Bankruptcy is right for you?

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

There are two basic types of bankruptcy available for people (not corporations).  A Chapter 7 is a liquidation of all unsecured debt with the option of retaining or returning secured property. That sounds very impressive and lawyer-like doesn’t it?  To say it another way, in a Chapter 7 you list all the debt you owe and you can keep the debt you decide to pay for, like a house or a car.  The other debts, like credit cards, medical bills, signature loans, payday loans and mail order things, are discharged (or forgiven)  and you would never have to pay those debts. If you decide you cannot afford to keep your house or a car, you have the option of giving the property back and owing that creditor nothing.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

A Chapter 13 is a reorganization of debt, a lot like credit counseling without the late fees, interest and collections.  In a Chapter 13 we put together a budget based on your net income and your everyday routine living expenses (not including your debts, mortgage or car payments).  This formula gives us an excess amount of income available for repayment of your debts.  Once we agree this figure is accurate, we file your bankruptcy and that amount is paid to a trustee on a monthly basis and he pays your debts for you.  He will focus first on secured debts, like a mortgage and cars. If he has money left over he will then make a distribution to your unsecured creditors.  While you bankruptcy is pending creditors cannot attempt to collect the debt.  At the end of your Chapter 13, your unsecured debts would be discharged and you would go back to making your mortgage payment.

Schlyer & Associates Can Help You File an Affordable Bankruptcy

Many people have struggled financially and have had to make the decision to file bankruptcy.  Remember, you are not alone and at Schlyer & Associates, you will not be judged or be made to feel embarrassed.  We are here to help.

How To File An Affordable Bankruptcy

posted by Schlyerlaw on Sep 22nd, 2011 at 11:26 am

 

The Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates, can help you file an affordable Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.   Schlyer & Associates helps people file bankruptcy in Lake County and Porter County, Indiana.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

There are two basic types of bankruptcy available for people (not corporations).  A Chapter 7 is a liquidation of all unsecured debt with the option of retaining or returning secured property. That sounds very impressive and lawyer-like doesn’t it?  To say it another way, in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy you list all the debt you owe and you can keep the debt you decide to pay for, like a house or a car.  The other debts, like credit cards, medical bills, signature loans, payday loans and mail order things, are discharged (or forgiven)  and you would never have to pay those debts. If you decide you cannot afford to keep your house or a car, you have the option of giving the property back and owing that creditor nothing.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

A Chapter 13 is a reorganization of debt, a lot like credit counseling without the late fees, interest and collections.  In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, a budget is prepared based on your net income and your everyday routine living expenses (not including your debts, mortgage or car payments).  This formula gives us an excess amount of income available for repayment of your debts.  Once we agree this figure is accurate, we file your bankruptcy and that amount is paid to a trustee on a monthly basis and he pays your debts for you.  He will focus first on secured debts, like a mortgage and cars. If he has money left over he will then make a distribution to your unsecured creditors.  While you bankruptcy is pending creditors cannot attempt to collect the debt.  At the end of your Chapter 13, your unsecured debts would be discharged and you would go back to making your mortgage payment.

Schlyer & Associates Can Help You File an Affordable Bankruptcy

Many people have struggled financially and have had to make the decision to file an Affordable Bankruptcy.  Remember, you are not alone and at Schlyer & Associates, you will not be judged or be made to feel embarrassed.  We are here to help.

LG Electronics Recalls Dehumidifiers Due to Home Fires

posted by Schlyerlaw on Sep 15th, 2011 at 9:10 am

 

The Northwest Indiana personal injury & Affordable Bankruptcy law firm, Schlyer & Associates, is warning of a recall issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission of certain Goldstar or Comfort-Aire dehumidifiers manufactured by LG Electronics Tianjin Appliance Co.  Schlyer & Associates are the Aggressive Trial Lawyers.

LG is re-announcing the recall of about 98,000 of the dangerous dehumidifiers that pose a serious fire and burn hazard.  According to the recall notice, the power connector for the dehumidifier’s compressor can short circuit, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers and their property.

Because of the severity of the risks, CPSC and LG Electronics are concerned with the lack of consumer response to the recall. Only two percent of the 98,000 consumers who purchased these units have received a free repair, which means that consumers and their property remain at serious risk according to the recall notice.

LG urges anyone who has the recalled dehumidifiers to immediately stop using them, unplug them, and contact LG Electronics for the free repair.

For additional information about the recall and for the location of an authorized service center for the repair, contact LG toll free at (877) 220-0479 between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, and between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. CT on Saturday, or visit the firm’s website at www.30pintdehumidifierrecall.com.

Need To File An Affordable Bankruptcy?

Northwest Indiana Bankruptcy Attorney Discusses Basics for Filing an Affordable Bankruptcy

Schlyer & Associates, a law firm in Northwest, Indiana can help you file an Affordable Bankruptcy.   We help people file bankruptcy in Lake County and Porter County, Indiana.

Which type of Affordable Bankruptcy is right for you?

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

There are two basic types of bankruptcy available for people (not corporations).  A Chapter 7 is a liquidation of all unsecured debt with the option of retaining or returning secured property. That sounds very impressive and lawyer-like doesn’t it?  To say it another way, in a Chapter 7 you list all the debt you owe and you can keep the debt you decide to pay for, like a house or a car.  The other debts, like credit cards, medical bills, signature loans, payday loans and mail order things, are discharged (or forgiven)  and you would never have to pay those debts. If you decide you cannot afford to keep your house or a car, you have the option of giving the property back and owing that creditor nothing.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

A Chapter 13 is a reorganization of debt, a lot like credit counseling without the late fees, interest and collections.  In a Chapter 13 we put together a budget based on your net income and your everyday routine living expenses (not including your debts, mortgage or car payments).  This formula gives us an excess amount of income available for repayment of your debts.  Once we agree this figure is accurate, we file your bankruptcy and that amount is paid to a trustee on a monthly basis and he pays your debts for you.  He will focus first on secured debts, like a mortgage and cars. If he has money left over he will then make a distribution to your unsecured creditors.  While you bankruptcy is pending creditors cannot attempt to collect the debt.  At the end of your Chapter 13, your unsecured debts would be discharged and you would go back to making your mortgage payment.

Schlyer & Associates Can Help You File an Affordable Bankruptcy

Affordable Bankruptcy Lawyers Answer What Is Secured Debt

posted by Schlyerlaw on Aug 24th, 2011 at 11:16 am

 

Schlyer & Associates, a Northwest Indiana Affordable Bankruptcy law firm answers your bankruptcy questions.  Today we will be discussing:

What is secured debt? Generally speaking, it means you purchased something on credit and you have their property. It is a house, a car or motorcycle.  Those are considered secured debts as long as you still have the property.

What is an unsecured debt? A unsecured debt is a credit card that you can use anywhere in any store.  If you use your VISA or Mastercard to buy CDs or a pair of shoes, the credit card company does not get/keep an interest in that property, it is unsecured.

On the other hand, if you take out a loan for a car, the loan documents specify that the loan is for a car and the creditor retains a security interest in the property until the property is paid off, the loan is secured.

Does it matter if my debt is secured or unsecured if I file bankruptcy? In a bankruptcy, you must decide what you want to do with secured debt.  If you want to keep the property, the house or car, you must make arrangements to continue making your required monthly payment.  This is known as a Reaffirmation.  If you want to keep the house or car, the debt is listed on your bankruptcy and then you can ‘reaffirm” or keep the property by making your payments.

On the other hand, if you no longer want to keep the house or car, you can surrender back the property to the creditor and owe them nothing.  Once the property is surrendered back to the creditor, the remaining balance becomes unsecured and is discharged.

Can I have an example? Sure, if you take out a loan at a place like American General Finance or Beneficial Finance, those debts are unsecured as long as you did not pledge your personal property as collateral to secure the debt. If you did, then the loan is secured by your personal property.  Payday loans are unsecured.

There are many other types of loans, credit cards and debts out there.  Please call us and schedule a free appointment to discuss your Affordable Bankruptcy options with one of our lawyers.  We will  discuss the type of debt you have and we can together figure out the best way for you to proceed.

If you have a great deal of medical debt (bills), credit card, house, car, payday or another other kind of debt and want to discuss your options, please call us at Schlyer & Associates at (219) 757-0225.  We can help you eliminate or reduce your debt.  We offer free face to face consultations in our office.

The attorneys at Schlyer & Associates can help you file Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Affordable Bankruptcy, if you live in Lake County or Porter County, Indiana.  Please feel free to contact us today at (219) 757-0225 if you or your loved one was injured or needs to file bankruptcy.  We are a debt relief agency.

However, there are also drawbacks to filing bankruptcy.  Let’s talk about bankruptcy like it was a Clint Eastwood movie:   the good, the bad and the ugly.

The Good. Bankruptcy can eliminate most debts and make it so that you do not have to pay them.  Some debt you just cannot get rid of, mostly debts owed to the government and debts relating to family law.  However, in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, most debt is discharged, such as medical bills, credit cards and pay day loans.  In a Chapter 13, debt is paid through a repayment plan proposed by you and debt not paid in full is discharged at the end.  Bankruptcy will stop all creditor harassment, telephone calls, collection, lawsuits, garnishments, foreclosures and other actions by creditors.  In some instances in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, interest rate on car loans can be lowered, allowing you to pay back less than what is owed on your vehicle.  Bankruptcy can help eliminate stress over past due or old debts.


The Bad. Bankruptcy is not something most people enter into lightly.  It is very emotional for some, stressful and embarrassing for others.  Some people feel like is a failure to have to file for bankruptcy relief.  Some people feel guilty for not paying their debts.  Bankruptcy is damaging to your credit.  Do not let anybody tell you different.  Bankruptcy stays on your credit report for up to seven years.  Bankruptcy does not wipe out the debt listed on your credit reports.  Bankruptcy can cause you to have to pay a higher interest rate for loans long after your bankruptcy is over.  A collection or lawsuit on your credit will cause these same “bad” things as well.

The Ugly? Well, we are not scary here at Schlyer & Associates, located in Northwest Indiana, so I am not sure where the ugly fits in to this blog, except it relates to the good and the bad.

Affordable Bankruptcy Lawyer - Those Crummy Creditors

posted by Schlyerlaw on Jul 26th, 2011 at 11:05 am

I am a bankruptcy lawyer at Schlyer & Associates in Northwest Indiana.  I help people file an Affordable Bankruptcy in Lake County and Porter County, Indiana. I enjoy filing bankruptcy for my clients, especially when there are credit cards involved.

Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with having and using credit cards - I have credit cards.  What I find disturbing is credit card companies charging you $35.00 late fees, interest, and then when you go over your limit because of their additional charges, they add over the limit fees.

Then when your payment is five days late, the fun begins: telephone calls from these very creditors who cannot seem to understand why you cannot pay your bill or make a $100.00 over the phone payment!

Those crummy creditors don’t care that you lost your job, you have suffered an illness or an injury or that you simply do not have the money they demand.  Even if you explain it, they will call back in an hour to have you explain it again.

I get so frustrated with creditors because I believe their collection tactics usually run people straight to me!

Once you come to see the attorneys at Schlyer & Associates and we figure out the best way to help you, the next thing those crummy creditors will get from you will be a bankruptcy notice, because you filed an Affordable Bankruptcy.

When you file for bankruptcy relief, the Bankruptcy Court in the Northern District of Indiana, Hammond Division, will issue an Automatic Stay on your behalf.  An Automatic Stay is a magic piece of paper, it is your shield, your protection from creditors.  Once your creditors receive an Automatic Stay, they have to stop all collection activity immediately.

What does that mean to you?  It means no more phone calls, no more letters, no more bills and no more harassment. If they are garnishing your wages, it will stop immediately. If they have filed a lawsuit, it will be put on hold and stopped.  You can hold your shield up to all creditors and they will be stopped in their tracks.

At Schlyer & Associates, we have free in office face to face meetings to help you understand the bankruptcy process and to help you navigate this path.  Let us give you the shield you need to keep creditors from harassing you.  Let us help you file an Affordable Bankruptcy.

If you live in the Lake County or Porter County communities of East Chicago, Gary, Hammond, Munster, Griffith, Highland, Dyer, St. John, Schererville, Cedar Lake, Lake Station, Crown Point, Merrillville, Hobart, New Chicago, Winfield, Lowell, Lake Dalecarlia, Miller, Lake Village, Portage, Valparaiso, Chesterton, Burns Harbor, Porter, Hebron, Pines, South Haven, Westville, Ogden Dunes, Beverly Shores we can help you file anAffordable Bankruptcy.  We are a debt relief agency.

If you believe you need to talk to a bankruptcy lawyer, please contact Schlyer & Associatestoday at (219) 757-0225 to schedule a free consultation.  Our office address is 200 West 80th Place, Merrillville, Indiana   46410.

Affordable Bankruptcy Law Firm Offers Bankruptcy Basics

Northwest Indiana Bankruptcy Attorney Discusses Basics for Filing an Affordable Bankruptcy

I am a bankruptcy attorney at Schlyer & Associates, a law firm in Merrillville, Indiana.   We help people file bankruptcy in Lake County and Porter County, Indiana.

I was thinking about what it would be like to be a non-lawyer.  Don’t get me wrong, I love my job and I love helping people file for bankruptcy.  I love having the immediate satisfaction of stopping creditor harassment and collection phone calls. I love stopping wage garnishments and halting foreclosure actions.

I believe sometimes, us so called “professionals” need to take a step back and walk a mile in the other shoe. I know a lot about bankruptcy and sometimes I forget that my client, while nervous, scared or even embarrassed, knows very little about the process of filing for bankruptcy.  It made me think, everyone should have some basic knowledge about bankruptcy and through a series of blogs, I want to share what I know.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

There are two basic types of bankruptcy available for people (not corporations).  A Chapter 7 is a liquidation of all unsecured debt with the option of retaining or returning secured property. That sounds very impressive and lawyer-like doesn’t it?  To say it another way, in a Chapter 7 you list all the debt you owe and you can keep the debt you decide to pay for, like a house or a car.  The other debts, like credit cards, medical bills, signature loans, payday loans and mail order things, are discharged (or forgiven)  and you would never have to pay those debts. If you decide you cannot afford to keep your house or a car, you have the option of giving the property back and owing that creditor nothing.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

A Chapter 13 is a reorganization of debt, a lot like credit counseling without the late fees, interest and collections.  In a Chapter 13 we put together a budget based on your net income and your everyday routine living expenses (not including your debts, mortgage or car payments).  This formula gives us an excess amount of income available for repayment of your debts.  Once we agree this figure is accurate, we file your bankruptcy and that amount is paid to a trustee on a monthly basis and he pays your debts for you.  He will focus first on secured debts, like a mortgage and cars. If he has money left over he will then make a distribution to your unsecured creditors.  While you bankruptcy is pending creditors cannot attempt to collect the debt.  At the end of your Chapter 13, your unsecured debts would be discharged and you would go back to making your mortgage payment.

Schlyer & Associates Can Help You File an Affordable Bankruptcy

Many people have struggled financially and have had to make the decision to file bankruptcy.  Remember, you are not alone and at Schlyer & Associates, you will not be judged or be made to feel embarrassed.  We are here to help.

If you live in the communities of East Chicago, Gary, Hammond, Munster, Griffith, Highland, Dyer, St. John, Schererville, Cedar Lake, Lake Station, Crown Point, Merrillville, Hobart, New Chicago, Winfield, Lowell, Lake Dalecarlia, Miller, Lake Village, Portage, Valparaiso, Chesterton, Burns Harbor, Porter, Hebron, Pines, South Haven, Westville, Ogden Dunes, Beverly Shores we can help you file bankruptcy.
