When you have mounting debts with no prospect of paying them off, applying for bankruptcy can be an effective way to treat the problem and give you the chance to have a fresh start.

Personal bankruptcy will clear all of your unsecured debts, but in doing so it's going to remain on your Credit History for 6 years, which will cause problems for your future borrowing during that timeframe. Another type of insolvency is an IVA, which often can be ideal in case you have equity to protect, or a career that is excluded from bankruptcy.

If personal bankruptcy certainly is the answer you're looking for, then the necessary paperwork will eventually be submitted to your local County Court.

For those living within Stourbridge we have included the court details below. You only need to contact the court if you already have everything prepared, including your Statement of Affairs and Debtor's Petition, and you are ready to finalise the Bankruptcy Order.
