- Q. Need help to dissolve S Corp due to pandemic- Can someone help?
- A: You should speak with an experienced bankruptcy attorney as soon as possible.
- Q. In California, when a judgment goes beyond 10 years, does it still accrue interest?
- A: The limitations period is applicable to the deadline for filing a complaint to obtain a judgment. Judgments need to be renewed every ten years.
- Q. Should I file for bankruptcy or settle law suit?
- A: Provided that you take the necessary steps to seek reaffirmation of a vehicle loan, you don't lose the vehicle based upon the judge's decision.
Granting or denying a creditor's motion to approve the debtor's reaffirmation of a vehicle loan only impacts whether or not the debtor may be responsible for a potential deficiency balance (after auction) if the debtor defaults under the contract and the creditor repossesses and auctions the vehicle.
Best to speak with a bankruptcy attorney to discuss this and other issues before deciding how to deal with your debts.
