Here s an overview as to how I initiate the bankruptcy process in Colorado:

1. I gather extensive information about your personal and business assets, debts, income and expenses, as required to determine which chapter is most appropriate, and
2. Before we file, you ll first need to provide to us any personal and business tax returns for the previous year, copies of pay stubs - or your business' Profit/Loss Statement and Balance Sheet for the past six (6) months for those self-employed, and proof of monthly expenses.

Before you deplete your retirement plan, transfer credit card balances or property of any type, or pay back any loans to a relative or friend, I strongly recommend that you contact our office .

You should also contact a Denver bankruptcy lawyer if you are being sued and/or if a judgment is pending against you. If a judgment is entered against you or your property, the underlying debt may become a secured debt thereby allowing a creditor to garnish wages, seize bank accounts, or place a lien on property. Although I can often eliminate judgments, it is still preferable for you to consult with me in advance before secured and unsecured creditors take legal action.
