A: You haven't mentioned who exactly is planning to file for bankruptcy, among other things. If yourself, schedule an appointment with a bankruptcy attorney in your local area to discuss your options and the extent to which a creditor who has repossessed your vehicle and its agents may or may not retain your personal property before or after the filing of a bankruptcy petition.
