Hi
I am from the NorthWest area of NortherN Ireland and have just been self declared bankrupt.
I owned 2 buisnesses in the property related game and closed them down and was advised to declare bankruptcy with unsecured debt of £25,000.
My home and investment properties have all been repossessed and were in negative equity anyway,
As bad as this sounds im relatively upbeat and 'stress' free.
I am seeking to hear from anyone who has been through or is going through a similar experience,maybe has come out the other side and is successfully back in buisness.This sort of story would be inspiring and i would welcome the feedback.
Thanks in the meantime
Gary

hi, unfortunataly i believe that northern ireland has different bankruptcy legislation than england and wales and so i cant give any adviceHi, im Debtinfo, i am an ex insolvency examiner and over the years have personally dealt with thousands of bankruptcy cases.
