AWW asked:
We live in CA. My husband and I were thinking about filing together for bankruptcy. However, he just received a personal injury settlement that is enough to pay off my credit cards and save my credit. If he does file for bankruptcy it wouldn’t be for a few months from now at least. Can he use the settlement money for this purpose or will this hinder his bankruptcy proceedings?

It will make the bankruptcy go faster and easier if the credit card debit was paid off beforehand.

On KGO radio weekdays from 12-1 there is a lawyer, Len Tillem. You can call in and receive free legal advice. He might be able to help. In the Bay Area, call 808-0810. Outside the Bay Area, dial on of the area codes (408 – 415 – 510) then the number. Good luck!
