Durham County Bankruptcy Court Information

 
 
When you have mounting debts with no prospect of paying them off, filing for bankruptcy could be an effective way to treat the situation and provide you with an opportunity to have a fresh start.

You have to seek specialist assistance before proceeding to guarantee that this is actually the right option available to you, as personal bankruptcy could negatively affect your assets and occupation.

If personal bankruptcy is the right choice for you, then the required paperwork will eventually be filed at your local County Court.

For those living within Durham we have included the court details below. You only need to contact the court if you already have everything prepared, including your Statement of Affairs and Debtor's Petition, and you are ready to finalise the Bankruptcy Order.

To arrange a consultation you can complete this online form, and an experienced Advisor will be in touch to assess your situation and advise you accordingly.
