Arkansas Exemptions and Filing Options for Maumelle

Arkansas law sets specific exemptions that protect property in bankruptcy. Knowing these before you file can make a real difference in the outcome.

The homestead exemption applies to your primary residence. Maumelle is an urban area, so the limit is one acre. The value protected is $2,500. That cap is low. If your home has equity above that amount, a Chapter 7 trustee may raise it as an issue. Personal property protection is $500 for married filers and $200 for single filers. Social Security income is fully exempt. Workers compensation is also fully protected. Public employee retirement funds qualify for protection under Arkansas statute.

Chapter 7 liquidates most unsecured debt in 4 to 6 months. You must pass the means test based on Arkansas income medians. Chapter 13 creates a 3 to 5 year repayment plan. It is the right choice if you have regular income and want to keep a home or car that is behind on payments. Both chapter types create public case files on PACER.
