Child Support
Fortunately, the law has carved out several exceptions for certain transfers made before bankruptcy is filed. Under the law, payments made on account of domestic support obligations such as child support or alimony are not considered preferential transfers. Additionally, aggregate payments of less than $600 to creditors are generally exempt from being considered as a preferential transfer. However, if most of your debts are business debts, you may pay up to $6,225 towards a business debt without fear of having the transaction avoided later.
Child Custody and Visitation
Evans Law Offices attorneys began representing clients in need of family law and bankruptcy affordable legal services in the bay area and other Northern California Counties in 2000. Specializing in cases with litigation, hearings and trials, we bring the experience that you need to your team. Our attorneys work tirelessly on adversary proceedings for bankruptcy trials and family litigation to include complex move away trials, domestic violence, child custody and support litigation.
Spousal Support
One of the very basic tenants and cornerstones of protection is the automatic stay. When a Bankruptcy case is filed the automatic stay is put into place. The automatic stay acts as a shield to creditors, and will prevent actions being taken against the person or entity that filed the bankruptcy case, unless the stay is lifted by a bankruptcy judge after a hearing. The automatic stay applies in any chapter chosen. Though powerful and useful in protecting assets and income at the inception of any bankruptcy case, the automatic stay has exceptions that have been written into the Bankruptcy Code over time, to offer other protections for groups or individuals who might be harmed with the filing of a bankruptcy case. An example of areas in which the automatic stay does not afford protections includes the dissolution of marriage, child support and spousal support. The automatic stay will not stop the family court from ordering the payment of support; protections may be afforded, however, for ongoing collection efforts for arrears that have accrued for either type of support. The automatic stay will not protect against a tax refund intercept for child support or spousal support (domestic support) obligations, in most circumstances. The taxing authorities are also afforded other intercept or set off potential for refunds, depending on the sum owing on the taxes, and the timing of case filing.
