You are required to file your bankruptcy in any of the bankruptcy courts that are found in the ’94 federal juridical districts’. If you like taking unnecessary risks, you could also go for online bankruptcy filing. We’d advise you to stay away from that mess. While filing your bankruptcy, you should find out if there is any bankruptcy filing fee waiver, which will reduce the amount you will incur as you file your bankruptcy. However, this can be requested after you complete your bankruptcy forms, which are used while declaring bankruptcy information.
Do I Need an Attorney to File a Bankruptcy
If you are not able to get a free bankruptcy attorney (very bad idea) or inexpensive bankruptcy attorney (most are also a bad idea), you could actually do it yourself (the worst idea) and this will reduce your cost of filing bankruptcy. However, having an attorney will make the process easier since we are well informed on the new bankruptcy code popularly known as the ‘Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005’ that came to effect on 17th October 2005 as well as the local bankruptcy rules in your state or country. It is estimated that over 70% of people who file for bankruptcy do it themselves without an attorney. Many of them end up in my office to clean up the mess later. It is only easy so long as you know the bankruptcy code. That’s probably why you need an attorney in the first place. An attorney is very important since he or she can help you in getting your federal bankruptcy forms completed in accordance with the federal bankruptcy code as well as federal bankruptcy rules and regulations. Understanding the bankruptcy laws by state is also important since there might be a slight difference in the various chapters from one state to another and your attorney will be of much help in this area.
Does Filling For My Bankruptcy Stop My Creditors Bills?
Yes. It will stop your creditors’ bills due to an ‘automatic stay’ that is immediately imposed by the federal law, and none of your creditors can collect any debts. This includes tax debts and court judgment while the bankruptcy case is still pending. However, under chapter 7, 11 or 13, if you file a second bankruptcy after recent bankruptcy filings (which are less than one year) and it was dismissed, the conditions of the initial dismissal will apply after 30 days of filing unless the second filing can be shown to be done in good faith. In fact, within weeks of your filing for bankruptcy, your creditors will be notified and they will stop collecting their debts.
Where Do I Get My Federal Bankruptcy Records?
Normally, your attorney will have a copy of your free public bankruptcy records for at least three months after you case is dismissed or discharged. However, this will vary from one attorney to another. You could also get your bankruptcy records online free of any charge as well as your free bankruptcy forms schedules.
How Do I Determine If My Income Will Make Me Eligible To File For A Bankruptcy?
You can do that by taking a bankruptcy means test online, which will determine if your income is low enough for you to file for bankruptcy under any of the bankruptcy chapters i.e. chapters 7 all through to 13.
Is Public Bankruptcy Information Accessible By Everyone?
Yes. According to section, 107 of the federal bankruptcy code, any fillings made are part of public records.
