What We Look at Before You File

In the pre-bankruptcy planning stage of your case, we need to gain an accurate picture of your debt to income ratio. In some cases, you may not need to file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. You may be able to take advantage of one of the alternatives to filing. To see clearly where you stand, we must examine your income, your living expenses, and other related costs. Together, we will take stock of your assets and advise you how to proceed. In some cases, it is better to wait to file for bankruptcy, particularly if you are making an above average income or if you will be in danger of losing an asset you wish to keep. We will work hard to make sure that we protect all your assets. Our goal is to discharge your debt without you losing any of your assets.

What to Bring to Our First Meeting

The more prepared you are to discuss your financial situation, living expenses and total monthly expenses, the better prepared we can be to discuss your options. When you come to Miller & Miller to discuss your case, please bring with you:

  • Your tax returns for the last two years
  • Your last paycheck stub and an idea of what your gross income has been for the six months preceding your meeting with one of our lawyers
  • An informal list of bills
  • Knowledge of what is owed on your home and its value
  • If you are self employed, we would like to know what your business income and expenses have been for the 6 months preceding your meeting
