I have heard of people that have done so and when they went to court they found out there were complications. For instance, one of my friends had a family member die and left his family some property. This was 4 years after he claimed bankruptcy. My friend was not even listed in the will. But, the court assigned a panel of three judges to investigate at a fee of $300 per hour. I would like to hear from anyone who has claimed bankruptcy with good or bad experiences. Any advice you are willing to offer will be most appreciated. Thank you in advance. Also, I am in California if that makes a difference. -
