Yes, but they should have a guardian appointing or someone with power of attorney to sign documents on their behalf. There are specific rules and procedures to be followed, so you will need an experienced bankruptcy attorney for this matter. A member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys should be able to assist you.
