Legal Services

Bankruptcy law can be very complex. Misunderstandings of the law or making mistakes in the process can affect your nights. Seeking the advice of a qualified lawyer is strongly recommended because bankruptcy has long-term financial and legal consequences (even if your case is unsuccessful).  The court cannot provide you with the legal advice or recommend attorneys.

Self Help Program - Request a meeting with a volunteer attorney from the Middle District Bankruptcy Bar Association. (note: this is a service offered by volunteer attorneys and is not sponsored by, or affiliated with the court)
