Que es Bancarrota?

Bancarrota es una área  compleja de la ley que implica muchas consideraciones, incluso si en el archivo, determinar que tipo de quiebra para presentar, el uso de las excepciones, comprender las protecciones del código de bancarrota y utilizarlas para su ventaja.

Tipos de solicitud de quiebra disponibles varían dependiendo  de su posición particular y es importante comprender las diferencias.

Capitulo 7 Bancarrota es un procedimiento de liquidación por el cual el deudor da vuelta todos los bienes no exentos a la síndico de la quiebra que luego convierte en dinero en efectivo para pagar a los acreedores. Por lo general, dentro de cuatro meses el deudor luego recibe una descarga de todas las deudas descargable. Estas deudas descargables incluyen su deuda de tarjeta de crédito cuentas médicas viejas, facturas de utilidades, prestamos, prestamos de día de pago y mayoría de otros tipos de deuda no asegurada.

Capitulo 7 Bancarrota esta disponible cuando el deudor tiene poca propiedad aparte de las necesidades básicas como muebles y ropa; el deudor tiene dificultades para cubrir pagaos de gastos básicos y ha dejado muy poco dinero después de hacerlo.

La ventaja de declararse en bancarrota de capitulo 7 es que se elimine completamente su deuda no asegurada el proceso es bastante rápido, y la permanecía automática que tiene lugar tras la presentación prohíbe a los acreedores haciendo esfuerzos de colección.

Bancarrota de Capitulo 13 es más que un proceso de reorganización que esta disponible a los deudores  que tienen participación significativa en una casa o otra propiedad y desean mantenerlo, o mantener un ingreso regular pero simplemente no pueden continuar con el plan de pagos de sus deudas. Capitulo 13 de quiebra permite el deudor a restructuré la deuda para que lo pagado en un periodo de tres o cinco años.

La ventaja de declararse en bancarrota de Capitulo 13 es que puede mantener su  propiedad mientras extiende los pagos, usted tendrá tres a cinco años para ponerse al día en las cuentas morosas, y durante ese tiempo  usted hará únicamente un pago mensual para el sindico de la quiebra para el pago a los acreedores involucrados.

Deer Vehicle Collsions

Each year, automobile and motorcycle accidents are a major cause of fatalities nationwide. As a result, it is important to employ all necessary safety measures available to avoid or reduce the risk of serious injury while operating an automobile or motorcycle.

An unforeseen cause of many accidents across the country is the unfortunate encounter vehicles have with large animals crossing the street. In Florida, there are many areas that include warning signs indicating where frequent deer crossings occur. These warning signs are particularly important for motorcyclists to be aware of, as collisions with large animals are even more devastating to motorcycle riders. It is important to know that at higher speeds it is very unlikely that motorists will have adequate time to prevent collision with a crossing animal.

If you encounter a potential collision with a deer or other large animal, it is important to brake firmly, flash your high beams at the animal in an effort to break their frozen response to the oncoming lights, and honk your horns to frighten the animal away.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a collision with a large animal and need help filing a serious injury claim, call Blick Law firm today at (813) 931-0840. Schedule a free 15 minute consultation with attorney Michael Blickensderfer. Think quick, call Blick!

Distracted Driving: Texting and Driving

Across the country, distracted driving continues to be a rising cause of automobile accidents and has resulted in numerous fatalities over the past decade. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, over 3,000 people were killed in distracted driving accidents in 2010 alone.

In an effort to stop texting and cell phone use behind the wheel, the U.S. Department of Transportation has encouraged states to enact tough laws prohibiting the use of cell phones while driving. Furthermore, several celebrities, media sources, and automobile companies have made efforts to raise awareness of the growing problem by reaching out to the community and promoting the dangers that can occur when driving distracted.

In 2012, the Florida Legislature adjourned again without producing a single distracted driving law. As of now, Florida is one of only 11 states without a ban on text messaging by all drivers. The trend of adopting such laws makes it appear inevitable that Florida may soon be adopting legislation that in some way prohibits the use of cell phones while driving.

If you or a loved has been a victim of an accident involving distracted driving and you have questions concerning your rights, call Blick Law Firm today at (813) 931-0840 and schedule a free 15-minute consultation with attorney Michael Blickensderfer. Think quick, call Blick!

Rise in Personal Injury Claims

Over the past couple of years there has been an increasing trend in the number of personal injury claims. A personal injury claim arises when a party suffers an injury with lasting consequences as a result of the actions of another party. The recent rising trend of injury claims is attributable to various reasons.

One reason is that injury victims are finding it easier to file claims in a market that offers no fee for cases that result in no recovery. Legal fees associated with personal injury claims are paid on a contingency basis; as a result, the standard is that attorneys offer to represent injury victims with payment for services contingent upon a recovery settlement. While this type of arrangement may encourage injured claimants to file suit more readily, it is important to recognize that the recovery is tapered by the legitimacy and extent of the injury.

The rise in personal injury claims is also attributable to various products that were negligently released to the public, and have caused serious and even life threatening effects.

Media coverage and an overall heightened awareness of the availability of insurance compensation for injuries have also encouraged injury victims to pursue recovery for injuries sustained through the actions or negligence of another person or company. Furthermore, while auto accidents haven’t increased in frequency over the past couple of years, the number of claims arising out of auto accidents has risen likely due to the publicity of auto accident injury recovery; and the recent trend may also suggest that motorists are more likely to seek compensation for insurance coverage that they are mandated to pay, even for marginal injuries.

Personal injury claims all vary in severity, and often times they involve lifelong consequences that require extensive future medical expenses and years of pain and suffering. If you or a loved one has been injured due to the actions or negligence of another, call Blick Law Firm today at (813) 931-0840.
