How to Start a Business Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

In that your company is filing for bankruptcy protection make sure to answer all the questions as though you are the company, not yourself. Make notes if you have any questions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Make certain that you have the proper authority to file bankruptcy for your company and to sign the necessary documentation. We will need a copy of the corporate resolution, or partnership agreement granting that authority.

Please follow the directions below. The General Review of Financial Status form helps us guide you through the complex documents which must be completed before a bankruptcy can be filed. All information is provided so that we can better assist you. Please note that this firm does not represent you until you have actually paid a retainer fee and signed a retainer agreement. So do not give out our name to your creditors until you have made the necessary arrangements with our office. If you have an emergency please call our office to discuss special arrangements. PLEASE NOTE: If you have any problems with any of the links please call our office.

In a very few cases bankruptcy is not the best option at the time. We will help you determine what other options might be available. But, in the great majority of cases, bankruptcy is the only option left. It is our job to help you throughout the entire process and to make sure you understand your rights and the complex legal issues involved with bankruptcy. Please review some comments that our clients have shared with us about our services.

You will be expected to pay one-half of your retainer at the time of this initial 2-hour meeting. Once you have paid a portion of the retainer you may refer all creditors and collection companies to our office.
