  • Hi Paul, You have come to the best place for some good varied advice. What I would do is post up your current SOA (STATEMENT OF AFFAIRS) so people can see your income and expenditure and be able to assist you further and people will dip in and out of your thread with all sorts of useful advice. Ask as many questions as you want.
    regards

  • Hi and welcome to the board.

    The first thing you need to do is contact one of the debt charities and go through your options with them (links and numbers in my sig.) If they say BR is an option then we will help and support you through the process. The judge may aslo want to know you have taken professional advice and could delay your petition if you haven't.

    Read as much as you can on the boards, especially the Bankruptcy Help sticky and ask as many questions as you need.
