college student bankruptcy
Can I file bankruptcy myself?
I know it is not advised due to new bankruptcy laws, but I can’t afftord to pay a bankruptcy lawyer. If I could, then I wouldn’t need to file bankruptcy. I’m a college student with over 10,000 dollars worth of debt and I just found a job but pays 7.00/hr. I barley have enough money to pay for the court filing fees. So any suggestions on filing myself? Or any affordable bankruptcy lawyers in the metro Atlanta, GA area?
You can file yourself. You would be considered a Pro Se Debtor, meaning you aren’t going to be represented by an attorney. I would suggest going to the library and locate a book that might assist you.
Keep in mind, that when you file bankruptcy, you can not get rid of Student Loans or taxes of any type.
I hope this helps!
