Posted - 13 February 2009 : 13:26:29 Hi...can anyone tell me...are you automatically routed to the Official Receiver to handle your bankruptcy or can you appoint(and I presume pay...any idea how much approx?) your own choice of insolvency practitioner to act in lieu of the OR ?
Many thanks

Once you have done this you will have an interview (either phone or face to face) with the OR's examiner. Your case may then be passed to an IP if there are assets to be realised.
You cannot choose the IP, they are appointed by the Insolvency Service.

You can get people to assist you to go bankrupt, but obviously this will cost you more than just the £495 court fee.
It is a fairly straighforward procedure to do it yourself.
