Legal Answers
10 Questions Answered
- Q. I know I'm going to have a high tax bill this year - does declaring bankruptcy allow me to not pay it?
- A: Unfortunately, income taxes need to be at least 3 years old before they become dischargeable in bankruptcy. However, your tax debt will be considered a priority claim, so any assets liquidated in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy will go to pay the taxes ahead of most other creditors. If you file a Chapter 13 case, you will need to pay these taxes through the Chapter 13 plan.
- Q. I am in the process of selling a property and I have been advised to get a Real Estate Lawyer. Do I need one?
- A: You do not always need a real estate attorney when selling property - it depends on your particular circumstances. You can search for real estate attorneys in the Find a Lawyer section of this site.
- Q. I am low income and elderly, how can I find an attorney that will help me with the bankrutcy filings and accept payments
- A: If your income is low enough, you may be able to get help from Colorado Legal Services: www.coloradolegalservices.org.
