Are you looking for bankruptcy law information?

Where is a bankruptcy order made?

Bankruptcy petitions are usually presented in the High Court in London or at a county court near where you live or trade (although not all deal with bankruptcy petitions).

Who deals with your bankruptcy?

Official Receiver

An Official Receiver is appointed to protect your assets. They act as trustee of your bankruptcy affairs if you have no assets.

Insolvency practitioner

If you do have assets, an Insolvency Practitioner will be appointed to act as trustee and sell your assets to pay your creditors.

Once a bankruptcy order has been made against you, your creditors can no longer pursue you for payment. Payment becomes the responsibility of the trustee.
