Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Wisconsin

I would not recommend a major federal court lawsuit (which s the requirement for denial of discharge) over $1500, no matter what the misconduct. You have no idea what you are in for with one of these, so talk to an experience4d bankruptcy lawyer about the details before you do anything. I would be shocked if any of them disagrees with me. The filing fee will be nearly 1/3 of the amount of your claim, and regardless of whether or not discharge is ever denied, you will be unlikely to get it back from a bankruptcy prone individual even if you win. The only good news here is that you have a chapter 13, rather than chapter 7, which makes it well worth filing a claim in order to receive a part of the distribution, if any.
