First and foremost, the applicant has to decide with version of bankruptcy he/she/they are filing for. There are six types: Chaper 7, Chapter 9, Chapter 11, Chapter 12, Chapter 13, and Chapter 15. The most common is Chapter 11 and the process begins with the filing of bankruptcy paperwork to the appropriate court. This is done with an attorney or a qualified paralegal.
