Will a bankruptcy stop a foreclosure or eviction?

In many or most cases, a bankruptcy filing will stop a foreclosure proceeding or eviction proceeding.  You need to have a consultation with our attorney to discuss your specific situation to see if and how we can assist you in your situation. But as a general rule, a bankruptcy filing will stop a foreclosure proceeding immediately unless a sheriff’s sale has already taken place and delay an eviction unless an eviction filing has already occurred.  Even if a sheriff’s sale has taken place or an eviction has been filed, we still may be able to assist you.  You should still call and schedule a free consultation with us.
