WHAT WILL THE BANKRUPTCY HEARING BE LIKE?

Most clients are nervous about the hearing that they will need to attend about 3-4 weeks after the filing of their case.  There truly is no need whatsoever to be nervous.  Most hearing last about 4 minutes and then you can go home.

Frequently, clients ask me what to wear at the hearing.  I recommend casual every day clothing (wearing jeans is fine).  You want to avoid either extreme of clothing -- don't dress up like you are attending an opera, and don't wear sweat pants and a ripped T-shirt either.  Just your regular every day clothes.

The first and second links below are videos about how a typical bankruptcy hearing proceeds.  The second link provides additional information about the hearing which you may find informative.
