Is it possible to file bankruptcy while living outside the USA? With the help of a lawyer?

Generally, yes.

It's often possible, but as a heads up, this isn't something Upsolve's software can help with- these cases can be complex.

Thank you Upsolve ~ I didn’t have to hire a bankruptcy attorney. That can cost up to $1500.

I got a car from a tote the note place and they went out of business and never told me and kept accepting my car payment and they kept giving me temp tags for a year after I got the car. I had found out from getting pulled over that they where giving me dealers tags which is apparently illegal. I finally contacted the TxDMV because every time I asked about my permanent tags I would get the run around. The dmv investigated my claim and found out that the company has been out of business for some time now along with then surrendering their license and that they had never even filled my paperwork for my tags. I was then advised to start the process in obtaining my tags myself. Once I finished the process and received my tags and bonded title about 3 months after they came and stole my car. Please tell me this is illegal and I have rights? I have the title!

Thank you all. I'm afraid to do it without an attorney, although I pass the means test for the past 6 months, due to changes in jobs, I am a little over the income in my current job. has anyone had this happen and been able to make it through based only on the prior 6 months? I had a consultation with a bankruptcy attorney today who made me second guess whether or not I could do it alone.
