Re: bankruptcy

To add on to Attorney Singleton-Smith's post, you can get a lot of information online, however, be very careful of the source. The US Bankruptcy Court's website is a good source, however, it cannot substitute for substantative, competent legal advice. Call an attorney - most give you a free initial consultation, and depending upon where you are, fees are generally extremely reasonable. Look at it this way - if you are going to wipe-out thousands of dollars of debt, you owe it to yourself to spend some money to do it right. The repurcussions of doing it wrong can be very bad.
