What happens to my car if I file bankruptcy
There are several issues to consider in answering this question. The most important issue is the value of your car. In most cases, you can protect your car using the allowable bankruptcy code exemptions. An exemption allows you to file for bankruptcy relief and protect some of your property. The bankruptcy courts understand you need a car to get to work and to pick your kids up from school. So long as you aren't driving an antique classic car, you will likely be able to keep your car.
Many states allow debtors to elect the bankruptcy code exemptions. In those states, debtors get their choice between the federal exemptions and those in the law of their state. For the balance of the states, only the state exemptions can be selected. The exemption laws vary greatly from state to state. You need to consult a seasoned bankruptcy lawyer for the list of exemptions available to you.
