What will happen if a company goes bankrupt?

It depends. Is the company closing up shop or is the company continuing business? Delta Airlines and General Motors have both filed chapter 11 bankruptcy cases and both have continued operations and come out of bankruptcy. So everything depends on the company and which type of bankruptcy they are filing and how they are moving forward.

I know that when a company files for bankruptcy, it can be a scary and confusing time for those who are involved in the business. While there are a lot of different reasons that could result in the decision for a business to declare bankruptcy, this article will focus on what happens when a company does declare bankruptcy and how it will impact you as an investor or consumer.

Over the last few years, there has been a lot of talk in the news about how companies are becoming more and more likely to go bankrupt. Everyone seems to have a theory about what is going on, but what exactly is bankruptcy? When you hear that Bank X or Company Y is going bankrupt, it's usually because they're unable to pay their debts. A company that declares bankruptcy is admitting that it will not be able to pay its obligations in full, and will need to take steps to reorganize in order to continue operating. With this reorganization comes the possibility of liquidation, which means that certain assets could be sold off in order to pay off creditors.

Can a divorced woman keep custody of her child if she remarries?

Image
Yes, a divorced woman can keep custody of her child if she remarries. Every situation is different, however. Is the child's biological father in the picture? The court will want to know who else is present in the child's life—who is the child's caregivers and how close are they to the child. The Court will always do what is in the best interests of the child – so try to see things from that perspective. When considering whether a divorced woman can keep custody of her child if she remarries, the first thing to look at is the law in her state . Different states have different rules regarding divorce and custody: some states allow a parent to change their custody status to "joint" or "shared" after remarriage, and others require that the parent terminate their old custody order before being allowed to enter into a new one. In situations where the court can't approve of an unmarried stepparent's rights over a child during joint custody, there a...

How do you probate a will?

Image
Probating a will is the process of proving that the person who wrote it is really dead and receiving their assets. It's a little different from an estate, which is everything the deceased owned at their death, including any property they left to people in their will. The steps of probate depend on where you live and whether there are any challenges to the will. Here are some of the general steps: -           The executor files a petition with the court, stating that he or she wishes to be appointed as executor and petitioning for letters of testamentary (will) or administration (no will) . This petition initiates the probate process. The person who has already been declared legally dead will be offered a chance to object to this petition. -           The executor pays off any debts or taxes that must be paid before probate can proceed. Taxes owed by the estate are called " estate taxes ." Debts ...

What happens if you miss a Chapter 13 bankruptcy payment?

Image
It depends on the situation, but it can result in some additional fees or even a potential dismissal of your case. I recommend that you speak with a bankruptcy lawyer immediately if you fall behind on your Chapter 13 payments or other secured payments being made outside of the Chapter 13 plan. In order to be eligible for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy , you must meet certain criteria. One of those is that you must have a regular income that allows you to pay back your creditors over time. That doesn't mean that you need to make the same amount every month, only that there should be some sort of regularity—you can't just make more in December than in May and then nothing at all until February. If you're on an income-based repayment plan, you'll need to have sufficient income to cover the projected monthly amount due each month. If the court determines that there's been non-payment (or insufficient payment) due to either insufficient income or other reasons, it can dism...
