Reaffirmation agreement

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , — admin @ 7:35 pm

A reaffirmation agreement in United States bankruptcy law refers to an agreement made between a creditor and the debtor that waives discharge of a debt that would otherwise be discharged in the pending bankruptcy proceeding. A properly executed, timely filed reaffirmation agreement modifies the discharge such that it is rendered inoperable against the subject debt. Most statutory authority for reaffirmation agreements is codified in section 524(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.
