Submitted by the Bond & Botes Law Offices - Thursday, July 9, 2020
Access to healthcare is an ongoing problem in Alabama and across the United States. In the early days of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the number of Americans without health insurance declined. However, the problem was never fully solved. Between 2010 and 2016, the number of uninsured Americans dropped from 46.5 million (17.8%) to 26.7 million (10%). U.S. Census data suggests slightly higher statistics (49.9 million in 2010 and 28.1 million in 2016), with the trend remaining the same.

It is very important to make sure that the schedules of debts and creditor matrix you file in an Alabama bankruptcy case are complete and accurate. Your bankruptcy petition and schedules are submitted under oath. Thus, it is a crime to knowingly or intentionally make misrepresentations. Aside from the risk of criminal penalties associated with willful misrepresentation of your debts, incomplete or inaccurate information can lead to delay or even dismissal of your bankruptcy case. Unlisted debt, with this in mind, can be quite problematic.
