I had a signing appointment with my lawyer today and it didn’t go well. I just got paid today so I have what looks like an excess of funds. They are saying anything that is in my bank account at the time of filing will have to be handed over. Is this right? I didn’t file today because I can’t give up my pay like that. I only get paid once a month. I would have a long ways to go with zero dollar to pay bills, buy groceries, and live on. How do I get around this? My husband isn’t filing with me but his account will be seized also? This doesn’t seem right. How can they do that to people.
I am Texas. The lawyer said since I have equity in my home I don’t get anything else.
