Historically there was something of a stigma about bankruptcy. Not any more.

Bankruptcy is now just one of numerous ways in which you can deal with debts that you can't pay. Bankruptcy can give you a fresh start (inevitably with a few restrictions) and allow you to move forward with your life.

Bankruptcy usually lasts for a year. Only the High Court can declare you bankrupt, after a bankruptcy petition has been submitted.

Many people find the prospect of going to Court a daunting experience, and that's where we can help.

Once you're sure that bankruptcy is the best option for you, we can take the weight of your shoulders. We'll prepare the paperwork, lodge it with the Court, and we'll represent you at the hearing - in fact, usually you don't even need to attend. All you have to focus on is making the fresh start that you want and need.

Please note that the operation of the Northern Ireland Courts Service has been impacted by Covid-19 and in some areas of law, different arrangements are being made to ensure that cases go ahead. Please ask us about your case and how it may be affected.

Cost

The costs of the bankruptcy are made up of our professional fees, and the fees payable on your behalf to the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment, and the Court. These fees are in the region of £640. Our professional fees are based on the complexity of your case and the amount of paperwork we have to prepare. The good news is that we can give you an accurate and clear fee quotation before you instruct us, so there are no hidden costs.
