Riverside Bankruptcy Discharge Violations 

After your Chapter 7 bankruptcy is completed, or you have finished your Chapter 13 repayment plan and your debts are discharged, creditors may not attempt to collect on any debt you may have owed prior to the bankruptcy discharge. It does not matter if your creditor received only partial payment through the Chapter 13 plan, or no payment at all – once the debt is discharged, you are free and clear, and are no longer obligated to pay it back. A bankruptcy discharge violation occurs when creditors attempt to bypass the legal protections of the Riverside County Bankruptcy Court and collect on debts that were discharged. When this occurs, creditors are breaking the law and are liable for damages to you as a result. 

If you are approached by a creditor to pay a debt which was discharged by your Riverside County Bankruptcy, you should document the incident and contact an experienced Riverside County Bankruptcy Attorney as soon as possible. Our Riverside County Bankruptcy Law Firm has experience in dealing with creditors who violate the bankruptcy discharge, and we can assist you when it comes to filing a lawsuit and recovering damages that you are owed as a result of the bankruptcy violation. Don’t let creditors continue to harass you and take away your legal rights by pursing a discharged debt. Contact us today and get a free initial Riverside Bankruptcy case evaluation as soon as possible. Once we have all the facts in your case, our team of professional Riverside County Bankruptcy Attorneys will get to work on your behalf, filing the necessary claims and giving you the essential legal representation that you need to be successful and win your case in court.

Remember, the relief granted by bankruptcy is a binding legal agreement that affects not only you, but your creditors as well. Don’t believe any creditor who says that their bankruptcy discharge has been revoked, dismissed or otherwise rendered unenforceable, unless you’ve spoken with an experienced Riverside County Bankruptcy Lawyer about the issue. Chances are good that the creditor is actually violating the law, and with proper legal representation, you may be able to recover significant amounts of money in terms of damages, legal fees and other considerations. Contact us today, and let our Riverside County Bankruptcy Law Firm get to work on your behalf.
