Attorney's Response to Bankruptcy Question from San Mateo CountyFor the question about bankruptcy in San Mateo, CA: The first thing that you need to understand is that the bankruptcy will not wipe out your IRS debt. If any of your assets are sold because of the bankruptcy, the IRS will get paid first. Without knowing the details of your financial situation, I can't say that keeping your home will be impossible. But I would expect it to be difficult, at best, and you'd need a very good, preferably local (San Mateo county) bankruptcy lawyer to pull it off. Bankruptcy isn't magic: it isn't just a matter of signing the papers and watching your debts disappear. Have a question for a San Mateo County Bankruptcy Attorney, ask here.
