When you file bankruptcy, debtors are required to disclose all their assets on schedules. You are also required to select exemptions if you want to exempt, or protect, your assets.

After the creditor recovers a money judgement (usually by default), the creditor will seek to execute this judgement.  One common way that creditors seek to satisfy the judgement is by recovering property belonging to the debtor that is held by a third party-often a bank or employer.  The creditor will serve this third party with a writ of execution and the third party will have to file a “return” identifying any property that belongs to you and is held by the third party. You will be given a copy of this return and will have an opportunity to claim exemptions or make other objections before the property is turned over to the creditor.
