Chapter 7 Objections To Discharge

Help Finding Lawyers and Attorney Fee Guidelines

In all bankruptcy Chapter 7 cases, discharge of debts is the ultimate goal sought by debtors. Filing motions objecting to discharge is an ordinary occurrence, and may or may not indicate a serious defect. With the assistance of a qualified Chapter 7 attorney, most objections can be avoided or easily dismissed. This desirable level of protection results from insightful planning and careful compliance with Chapter 7 rules. Conversely, sloppy preparation and noncompliance results in dismissals following consideration of motions objecting to discharge. In this light, motions are not either good, or bad, but rather indicate that one party will be sadly disappointed when the letter of the law is exposed during the hearing.
