I've been sued. They got a judgment. Should I file bankruptcy?
If someone, say, a creditor, sues you, at the end of that lawsuit there will be a "judgment." That means you owe them money in whatever amount the judgment says. A judgment will show up on your credit report and can be renewed by the "judgment creditor" every ten years (or more often.) You can get rid of almost any judgment in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
There is often a hidden problem with judgments, though, if a lien has been filed or "recorded" as a result of the judgment. Tell me about any lien or judgment so that I can solve the lien problem at the same time as I deal with the judgment. They are two separate issues.
