Are you using the correct bankruptcy reaffirmation forms and are you completing them properly?

After making significant changes to the official reaffirmation forms in December 2009 (as discussed in an earlier NorthLegal Webinar), the court system changed some (but not all) of the forms again in April 2010 and withdrew the December forms.  The April forms fixed some of the defects in the December forms but other errors remain. The April forms also make it easy for a creditor to make mistakes that could cause it to lose some or all of its claim!

This program will help creditors know which reaffirmation documents to complete, how to complete them, and what common errors to avoid.

During this program attorney Eric North talks participants through the most recent rules and forms and discusses —

 

Participants also receive fillable PDF versions of the official reaffirmation agreement and reaffirmation cover sheet containing additional language recommended by attorney Eric North.

The two deadlines for completing and filing a reaffirmation — one hard and one soft.  
How to complete the Official Form "cover sheet."  
How to avoid getting burned by your answers to certain questions on the cover sheet.  
How to prepare the April 2010 Official Reaffirmation Agreement; language you may add to clarify the information on the form to prevent confusion or loss of part of your claim later; and mistakes not to make!
Whether you may continue to use the 1/2007 Official Reaffirmation Agreement, why you might want to do so, and what common errors to avoid if you do.
