Hi all,
Potential referral here. I haven't met with the person yet (referral from
attorney friend), but here are the basic facts. Father and son have same
name. Father cosigns on $26,000 student loan. Son then, over several years
time forges fathers name on several other student loans. Loan company gets
judgment for approximately $200,000. Father does not know where son is
currently and father willing to file police reports regarding the
forgeries. Father was living in Texas while this happened and I'm not sure,
but the judgment is probably from Texas. Father recently returned to the
South Pasadena area (within last year). He stopped working because he felt
he was being buried in debt. He is now living with his parents and they are
willing to help him sort through this mess.
This will be a referral, however, I have a general question regarding the
underlying fraud and whether that is something that should be taken care of
prior to bankruptcy filing, or whether it is something that would best be
taken care of in the bankruptcy.
Thanks in advance,
