    pending lawsuit w/bankruptcy

    Hi, I have a pending lawsuit from a accident 2 years ago which has led to the need to file bk. I need to know if I can file a 7 or 13. I have heard in both cases the trustee might take over case. Live in Georgia.

    Welcome to BK Forum, jhawkins - glad you found us!

    To help with your questions we need more information...
    *Was the accident your fault?
    *Did the accident involve drinking?
    *Who is suing you?
    *Has the accident case been scheduled for a date in court?
    *What is your total income for the last six months? (include all sources)
    *Do you have others besides yourself living in your household?
    *What are your assets? Do you own a house? Cars?
    *How much total secured debt do you have? (mortgage, home equity line, auto loans, etc)
    *How much total unsecured debt do you have? (credit cards, unsecured loans, etc)
    *Have you spoken to any GA bankruptcy lawyers about your situation?
    I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice nor a statement of the law - only a lawyer can provide those.

      The best way to find out is consult a BR lawyer. He/she will probably be able to answer pretty quickly.
