South Florida Bankruptcy Lawyer

Many people worry that if they file for bankruptcy, their employ may see that there is something terribly wrong going on at home.  They feel that the employer may no longer value them as an employee, that they might even lose their job.

There are a few things to remember if this is a fear of yours.  Before your employer can look at your credit report, he must have your written consent.  Even then, employers are bound by law not to discriminate on the basis of financial status or new information of credit insolvency. 

Futhermore, if you have money in a retirement fund, like a 401k plan or an IRA saving plan, the money is protected from bankruptcy claims.  Hopefully this brings a little peace to the unrest that might be going on in your mind regarding your job security and bankruptcy.
