Legal Question in Bankruptcy in New York

Re: protection

A bankruptcy filing would protect you from the future lawsuit.

Since you know that you have a potential debt with some creditor, you would simply list this claim in your petition, even if you dispute owing any money to the creditor and even if the amount in question is unknown.

Once you file the bankruptcy, the automatic bankruptcy stay would prohibit the creditor from ever bring a lawsuit against you.
