Going to Court will be the final step of the bankruptcy process. Prior to phoning the Court and organising a time and date to apply for a Bankruptcy Order you first need to weigh up your options.

Expert guidance is a must once your debts have grown to be so unmanageable that drastic action is required. In some cases the problem isn't as bad as you imagine, and an informal arrangement, like a Debt Management Plan, could be more suitable.

If personal bankruptcy certainly is the right choice for you, then the necessary documentation will eventually be submitted to your local County Court.
