If you are considering filing for bankruptcy, it is important to speak with an attorney to discuss your options.

Here are some factors that bankruptcy courts consider when determining whether or not to discharge an uninsured accident claim:

  • The nature of the accident
  • The accident details (i.e. if there were any drugs or alcohol involved the debt will not go away)
  • The debtor's financial situation
  • The debtor's conduct leading up to the accident
