Do You Have to Go To Court to File Bankruptcy?


Filing for bankruptcy can be a daunting process, but understanding the basics can help make the process less overwhelming. One common question people have is whether or not they have to go to court to file bankruptcy.

The answer to this question depends on the type of bankruptcy you are filing. If you are filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as liquidation bankruptcy, you will not have to go to court. This is because most Chapter 7 bankruptcies do not involve any repayment plan.


If you are filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, also known as reorganization bankruptcy, you will have to go to court. This is becauseChapter 13 bankruptcies involve a repayment plan where you repay your creditors over a 3-5 year period. The court will need to approve your repayment plan before it can go into effect.
