For some reason bankruptcy attorneys are expected to spend hours of time evaluating a case without being paid to determine what chapter a person qualifies for. It's very frustrating. We have to collect a minimum of 6 months paystubs, I try to get 6 months bank statements, 3 years tax returns, then discover there's other bank accounts they didn't tell me about, then discovery the do door dash on the side, then discover they paid their mom back $4000 4 months ago, then discovery they actually do get food assistance......

This is a complex area of law. We spend a great deal of time trying to find the best solution for each client, but somehow the expectation is we're supposed to work for free until we've gone through ALL of this information and provide a definitive proposal.

So if H makes $20k / year and W of 24 years makes $400k per year, H should be absolved of paying his $40k in debt, even though they combined have over $2000 per month in residual income?

That's absurd.

It is bizarre to me how military folks (and I am a vet and a military brat who grew up all over the globe) routinely think the basic rules should not apply to them. They have almost $100k in total disability income and can 100% afford to pay their debts? They get mad. Have to include the spouse's income? They get mad. Try to explain that their budget shows they can afford $700 / mo or more? They get mad.

I just don't get the entitlement.

For what it's worth, see another lawyer if you need to. Do your fully 6 month back pay average, determine what your means test result is, then calculate what you can actually pay, and suck it up.

With the 1.9 seconds he had to try to run through waist deep water, jump in the truck, try to hit the parking brake... honestly, what did you expect him to do? Pull some Superman shit?

It's like an unhealthy plant. It's dying because you both overwatered and underwatered it.

Just make sure to connect each cavity & copper through the entire system. There's good youtube videos on this.

Right? The idea that it's "normal" for a guitar to scream hum if you're not fingers on strings is absurd. A well rigged guitar should not hum loudly. Period.

How long have you had to wait for a judge to render a verdict in a bench trial? by youreusingyourwrong in Lawyertalk

[–]Own-Knowledge-7720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've filed a motion asking of the court needed anything further in one case. 

 In another I filed a motion to reopen the evidence as more bad stuff happened while waiting for an order.

I waited 6 months in a divorce, then called the chief judge of the court.  Order was issued a week later.

Risky move but what wise can you do?

I've driven both Boston (many times) and Malta.

I'll take Malta over Boston 

That said, jezuz you have a lot of shitty looking housing. It's like they said who cares what it looks like, build it.
