The best-planned bankruptcy cases go unnoticed. A few debtors glide through the system without attracting attention and receive full discharges in record time. Luck is not involved, but rather each successful debtor begins planning strategically a few weeks or months in advance. These debtors know something that you don’t.

bankruptcy filing affects enforcement of an eviction proceeding or other legal matters, please contact your

The Yuma Division jurisdiction covers the counties of Mohave, La Paz, and Yuma County. In general, a domicile
within the county - used as a primary residence - is sufficient for jurisdiction. US citizenship is not
required. State citizenship is not required. A debtor who does not live within the borders of the United states
but does own property or operate a business within the state may file after 180 days.
The Yuma Division provides examples of petitions, schedules, forms, local rules and official instructions
that may be useful when filing. Be aware that instructions provided are general, and are not a substitutive for
legal advice which may provided by a qualified attorney. The Code prohibits judges, clerks and personnel to provide
debtors with information that may be construed as legal counsel. This provision applies
equally to debtors, creditors, and parties in interest. Individual filing pro se may call trustees and
inquire about case status. Trustee offices generally explain the basis of all objections filed.
