Today is the day.

It’s past time you had someone in your corner.
Our first consultation is always free.

You can keep your car despite filing for bankruptcy. Everyone who files for bankruptcy can use the bankruptcy exemptions to protect their car.

What Are Bankruptcy Exemptions?

Bankruptcy exemptions are laws that protect your property in bankruptcy. Filing for bankruptcy doesn’t mean you have to give up your car. You can combine the wild card exemption and the motor vehicle exemption to protect almost $20,000 of equity in your vehicle. 

The Wild Card Exemption

The most important exemption is the “wild card,” as it can be applied to any property. You can use the wild card exemption ($15,425) to protect your car.

The Motor Vehicle Exemption

You can also use the motor vehicle exemption ($4,450) to protect your car. By simply stacking these two exemptions together, you can protect almost $20,000 of equity in your car when you file bankruptcy.

The Bottom Line

Your car is protected. 99% of clients erase their debt and keep their car.  It’s free to chat with me about your options – you can call or text me at 215.551.7109.
