Exemptions Bankruptcy Exemptions protect certain types of your property from your creditors. State law protects the equity in your home, car, retirement, clothing, tools, and other important property. Means that a married couple filing a joint bankruptcy case in the State of Missouri can protect 6,000 cars if each is worth only $1. Or, more likely: Vehicle 1 is worth $12,000 and you owe $10,000 = $2,000 equity Vehicle 2 is worth $20,000 and you owe $19,000 = $1,000 equity Vehicle 3, driven by Daughter is worth $3,000 and is paid off = $3,000 equity Our Debtors can protect all 3 cars because the total equity is only $6,000.
