Can I Keep Some Things?

Certainly. Bankruptcy law allows a consumer certain "exemptions" which are things that the government says you can keep even if you file a bankruptcy. Usually it is most of the things which are important to you. We can go over your list of assets with you and determine what property exemptions to use so you can keep as much of your property as you are allowed. Exempt property can include things like cars, furniture, clothing, jewelry, motor vehicles, tools of your trade, retirement amounts or agreements, the equity in your home, pets, and other things.
