Bankruptcy in Chicago: general information

General information, not legal advice. Ask a lawyer about your situation.

  • Chicago-area bankruptcy cases are filed in the Northern District of Illinois. Chapter 7 is a liquidation; Chapter 13 is a repayment plan over three to five years.
  • You must take a credit counseling course from an approved provider before you file. A firm can point you to one.
  • Chapter 13 fees are often partly paid through the plan; Chapter 7 fees are usually paid before filing. Ask how the firm handles it.
  • Gather six months of pay stubs, recent tax returns and a list of debts before a first meeting.
