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 assess your options.

Bankruptcy will clear your personal unsecured debts, but in doing so it's going to remain on your Credit History for six years, which will influence your future borrowing during that timeframe. Another type of insolvency is an IVA, which often can be ideal for those who have equity to protect, or a profession that is excluded from bankruptcy.

If bankruptcy is the solution you're looking for, then the appropriate paperwork will eventually be submitted to your local County Court.

For those living within Winchester 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.
