Nervous- Finally a meeting scheduled

[tiredofdebt]

Hey Guys......
I have a meeting w/ the BK Lawyer on 9/7...and i am nervous as heck.....i dont know where to start...or what to say. The receptionist was very helpful ...and she told me everything I need. Pay stubs back to march...lisence...social security card( i need to go get a replacement)...all bills...credit reports....

Can you all think of anything else???

Breathe

Remember to breathe! Actually, you will find the BK attorney to be the safest and most pleasant place after months of creditors breathing down your neck. Your attorney is there to help you, not condemn you.

Remember, there is hope on the other side. My best to you.

Keep paying mortgage and car (if you have these) and all utilities......ask your attorney about everything else.

If you pay the attorney a retainer, you can have any creditor call them instead. Or you can let all the calls go to your answering machine. Once you file, they cannot call or contact you anymore.

yes.....w/ starting out w/ $150......all my creditors can begin calling my lawyer....this lawyer actually handled my friends bk...and it went really smooth...but my friend(luv her to death) is such an airhead...she doesnt even remember what chapter she filed.....she just let the lawyer handle everything for her...the bk lawyer is very knowledgeable and all she deals w/ for 13 yrs is bankruptcy
