What is the name of your state? TX
Due to circumstances beyond my control I may be forced into chapter 7. My concern is that my only vehicle is a leased vehicle. Could I end up losing this vehicle if I file for chapter 7? My friend believes it to be ideal to out and get a car now that is a regular purchase rather than a lease since my credit is still good as of right now and then file chapter 7 to avoid losing my leased vehicle. Is this ideal or even legal? Essentially, the bank would repo the lease and the car I "own" would remain.
