Bankruptcy Timeline


                When is the best time to file for bankruptcy?  After a consultation, most attorneys allow for their clients to wait to file until they can pay the filing fee, which can be paid in installments.  Though some clients may want to file right away to stop foreclosures or make debts go away sooner, there is an advantage to the time given to the clients between the consultation and actually filing. 
                The gap between deciding to go forth with the bankruptcy and filing with the court allows for the client to have the time they need to both make the filing payments and to gather all the documents necessary to proceed with the bankruptcy.  This time gap also allows for the client and attorney to work through all of the questions that the trustee or judge may have for the client once the bankruptcy goes through.  
                For more questions regarding the timeline of filing for bankruptcy, please contact your local bankruptcy attorney.
