In this enlightening episode, Jeff Kelly, an experienced Georgia bankruptcy attorney, tackles a substantial concern of many people – the fear of losing a job due to filing for bankruptcy. Drawing upon his 25 years of experience in the field, Jeff provides reassurances and factual validations to dispel this erroneous belief.

The conversation takes us through the protections accorded by the bankruptcy code, which explicitly prevents employers from firing an employee due to bankruptcy proceedings. Jeff emphasizes the legal ramifications that an employer could face if they attempted to do so.

Other subjects we covered on the show:

• Job security during Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy filings
• Georgia as an at-will state and its implications on employment
• Why a reasonable employer wouldn’t fire an employee who has filed for bankruptcy
• The widespread prevalence of bankruptcy procedures among employees and employers alike
