Pre-Bankruptcy Credit Counseling and After Bankruptcy Financial Management Requirement

 

If you decide to file bankruptcy, the law requires you to complete a credit counseling course with an approved credit counseling agency.  In addition, you will be required to complete a financial management course after you file in order to receive a discharge of your debts.  The fees for these courses vary depending upon the company you use.  Click here for a list of approved credit counseling agencies and their contact information.
