Honesty is best policy

Honesty goes a long way

Clients will sometimes say that they don’t want to list a creditor who may be a friend or family member, but it’s important that those creditors are listed. In bankruptcy, you must list all of your creditors. Your attorney isn’t familiar with who you may owe money to so if you fail to list a creditor, the debt may not be eliminated during the bankruptcy process. (You should even list creditors that you may have a dispute with.) There are also various types of future interests that will need to be disclosed in your bankruptcy. (Stocks, trusts, tax refunds, pensions, inheritance, etc.) The best option to ensure your petition is filed correctly the first time is to hire a reputable attorney who specializes in Wisconsin Bankruptcy.

There’s no need to be embarrassed about filing bankruptcy. Most bankruptcy cases aren’t caused by reckless spending. Most bankruptcies are filed by normal people who find themselves in financial hardship due to job loss or medical bills. Others may be lower-income individuals who simply can’t afford to deal with unexpected major expenses that have come their way. In 2013, there were more than 1,002,000 bankruptcies filed nationally!
