No, not as long as they were included in the bankruptcy. You should give their information to your bankruptcy attorney, who will contact the debt collector. If that doesn't work, your attorney will certainly know what to do next.

How do you make an offer to a debt collector?
You can call or write the collection agency or lawyer. You may be referred back to the debtor, unless the collector has bought the debt. To settle the matter, make the best offer over 50% you can pay in a lump sum, or try to get the creditor tio make an offer of a settlement amount. If you can't pay a lump sum, you will find the creditor or collector unwilling to cut a deal as to the amount owed, and you will have to pay the interest plus something towards the principal every month. Look into bankruptcy if the debt is over $1,000 or you owe several unsecured creditors.
