Need someone with knowledge of Michigan's bankruptcy & creditor laws?

[siwili]

Hubby filed a bankruptcy, chap. 7 and included a debt owing to an attorney that did not do a job properly that caused his pay to be garnished. Had the attorney did the job properly, hubby's pay would not have been garnished and the attorney woulda been pain in full like she had been prior to.

So now the attorney that he filed on did not stop sending bills like she is suppose to do by federal law, she chose to not show up at the meeting of creditors. What recourse is available to my hubby? The attorney's assistant advised me last year before the holidays that they do take clients to court for non-payment. This is a mess.

You need to speak "officially" with another bankruptcy lawyer in the state of Michigan.. to see what your exact rights are.. [at additional cost]

If you write a letter to your state attorney general they might be interested.. if something unethical is being done..

===========================

It was my understanding when a debt was discharged in bankruptcy court.. the entity owed money could no longer contact the debtor, or it was considered harrassment.

If the attorneys bill owed was not discharged in bankruptcy court.. I think they can still send bills and garnashee wages..

Does this help any?
