Attending Court will be the final step of the bankruptcy process. Prior to speaking to the Court and organising a time and date to apply for a Bankruptcy Order you first need to assess the options.

Qualified, professional advice is very important as soon as your debts have grown to be so unmanageable that significant action is required. At times the situation is not as bad as you think, and an informal arrangement, such as a Debt Management Plan, may well be more practical.

If bankruptcy is the right choice for you, then the necessary paperwork will eventually be submitted to your local County Court.

For those living within Wigan 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.
