How to begin filing bankruptcy?

I’m currently unemployed and up to my ears in debt and have no other recourse but to file, or at least explore, bankruptcy.

Does anyone have any firsthand knowledge on what the process is these days? I hear it’s much more complicated than it used to be so I’d like to know more about what I might be in for. Consumer Credit Counseling did me no good..just FYI.

Also, if you have any recommendations on where to go in the Southbay area of California (Hermosa, Redondo, Manhattan beaches, etc.) I’d really appreciate it!

Thanks so much.
Also, does anyone know how much an attorney charges for assistance in bankruptcy?

Best website is the US Bankruptcy official website…www.usbankruptcy.gov It’s an excellent site for information on each chapter of a bankruptcy filing. You can contact a local bankruptcy attorney for a free consultation, most will see you and go over your information to be able to tell you what you qualify for. Another informative website is www.bcsalliance.com, great info on credit, debt and bankruptcy issues. Good Luck!!
