How to File Bankruptcy
What do you need to file for bankruptcy in Utah? You are required by law to submit the following:
- A comprehensive list of all your debts and assets
- Pay stubs for the past 7 months
- Tax returns for the past 4 years
- Some background information about yourself
With this paperwork, we can start preparing your case for filing with the bankruptcy court. All information must be up-to-date, including the names and addresses of creditors. Leaving out assets or other crucial information could lead to a denial of your application.
You don’t have to prepare and file anything on your own, however, when you turn to the reliable Utah bankruptcy lawyers at Burton & Associates in Salt Lake City. We have a free bankruptcy packet you can download that spells out what you need in order to file bankruptcy.
We know that getting organized is the first step toward financial relief. Once you have all your paperwork, you can then meet with us and get your Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy filed on the same day.
