Episode 291:Why So Many Documents?How much due diligence goes into filing bankruptcy? What are the document requirements?
While these are not questions I get from clients too often, they are two of the most important questions when considering a bankruptcy filing. Why? Because failing to do any due diligence prior to filing could get both the client and the law firm (and me) in trouble with the bankruptcy court. And when you get into trouble with the bankruptcy court, it is the FBI that comes knocking on the door!
So what are the due diligence requirements? We provide all of our clients with document checklists, information, and support. In today's episode, I discuss most of the different common types of documents and information we need. Of course, every bankruptcy is factually different, so the list provided in today's episode is just the starting point.
If you have questions about bankruptcy, please let us know or post a comment wherever you listen to this podcast!
