A: If you are a natural person, verses a fictitious (i.e. corp, llc, etc.), you are permitted to represent yourself in court. However, Bky is a VERY COMPLICATED area of law, involving a combination of State Laws and Federal Procedures.

The Discharge does what it says: it discharges your liability. Once it is granted, a copy goes to all parties included in the case. The filing of the Bky will appear on your credit report for 10 years. A "Certified Copy" of the Discharge maybe required for certain things, such as when... View More
