Best Answer

It is possible to file bankruptcy without an attorney. But it would only be suggestible to those with a good comprehension of the current bankruptcy laws while keeping up to date with any changes to those laws.

A person would have to how to submit all the complete information, dates of deadlines, which property they are entitled to claim as exempt as well as which property that are not entitled to, and finally what chapter of bankruptcy to file under. A result of not completely adhering to or understanding the law and procedures, could lead to a dismissal without debts being discharged.

If a person does not have the comprehension to follow this whole procedure, it would be best to simply consult with an attorney.
