LOST YOUR DRIVER’S LICENSE? BANKRUPTCY COULD BE THE SOLUTION TO A BIG PROBLEM.

BANKRUPTCY RELIEF IF YOU LOST A DRIVER LICENSE

Maryland State and many other states will suspend your driving privileges if you have an accident, are not insured and the state has to pay under the State uninsured motorist insurance.

This is one area where bankruptcy can provide very significant relief. Section 525 of the Bankruptcy Code prohibits all governmental units from discriminating against someone who has filed bankruptcy or has not paid a dischargeable debt. This includes a prohibition from refusing to issue a license or a permit.

GET HELP FROM BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY TO REMOVE MVA FLAGS

Under this section if you have been in an automobile accident while your insurance lapsed an experienced Bankruptcy attorney can help you with the process of having the flags removed by the Motor Vehicle Administration and force the State to issue a license to drive. Another place that you can benefit is when you owe the State taxes and have had your license suspended.

Once again in either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 an experienced bankruptcy lawyer can help you get your driving privileges back. The Relief in Chapter 7 will only be temporary however unless the taxes are able to be discharged.

You should consult a bankruptcy attorney to help you determine whether this relief will be available and under what circumstances it will be permanent. A bankruptcy will not resolve a Debtors problems if they have a license that is suspended because of fines or violations.  Those are not going to be discharged and are not subject to the protection in Section 525 of the bankruptcy code.
