OBTAINING LEGAL ADVICE IN A BANKRUPTCY CASE
Bankruptcy cases are legal proceedings which affect the rights of debtors and creditors. Title 28
U.S.C. Sec. 955
PROHIBITS any member of the Clerk's Office staff from giving any advice which may be considered legal in nature. Canon 2f and Canon 3 of the Judiciary's Code of Conduct also
PROHIBIT this office from providing legal advice and further require that the staff remain impartial. While individual debtors are not required to be represented by an attorney when filing for bankruptcy protection, bankruptcy law is sufficiently complicated that most find it desirable to obtain an attorney's services. For assistance in that regard, you are advised to contact the referral section of your local bar association. Bar associations located in this district
