What is the name of your state?CA
HI. My mom was recently in a car accident and has racked up enormus medical bills to which she cannot pay ($96,000) She has no assets except for shes a co-owner of a vehicle w/ my dad. she doesnt work. as i read, i believe she has no non-exempt assets.
We're considering to file chapter 7 for her after all the medical expenses are accrued. She also has some credit card debt that she's been paying slowly but timely for some time as well.
In case the other parties involved in the accident file a lawsuit against her, (and possibliy my dad), should my dad who owns a company file chapter 7 as well as my mom?
We don't know if they will file lawsuit against us yet, but if we wait until we find out, will it be too late for mom and dad to file chapter 7 so that my dad's company can be protected against??
Thanks so much!!!
