Can filing bankruptcy stop harassing phone calls, garnishments, repossessions, foreclosures, and sheriff’s sales?

Yes. Subject to certain limited exceptions, as soon as a bankruptcy petition is filed, the automatic stay takes effect, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362. The automatic stay protects the debtor and their property by stopping creditor harassment and collection efforts such as garnishments, foreclosures, and sheriff’s sales.

Even if your home is scheduled for sheriff’s sale tomorrow, it may be possible for our office to help you keep your home. If your property is up for sheriff’s sale, please visit our Foreclosure and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy pages for more information or give us a call at (225) 769-1414 to set up a free consultation. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
