What information to prepare

- Your monthly income and major expenses
- Any lawsuits, garnishments, or foreclosure notices
- Recent pay stubs and bank statements
- A list of major assets (home, vehicles)
- Any creditor letters or court paperwork
Why quick action matters
In debt situations, timing is critical — a foreclosure sale date, a garnishment, or a lawsuit response deadline can move fast, and filing bankruptcy triggers an "automatic stay" that can pause many collection actions. The sooner a participating firm can review your situation, the more options may be available. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating firm can explain the deadlines and options that apply to you.
