Posted - 18 February 2009 : 18:33:22 thanks melanie i have tried citizens advice they said it was too complicated for them i have tried solicitors whom think the bankrupcy i filed is wrong but due not take legal aid cases due to my mental health i live on benefits and cannot afford the high fees they require the offical reciver does not want to know either and carries on regardless even though i have proof i was suffering from mental health problems when i filed for bankrupcy and have told him this but still he carries on with the bankrupcy surely any judge could see the bankrupcy should not have petitioned without proper advice but it seems judges are inexcesable

Posted - 18 February 2009 : 14:05:25 I apologise that the only advice I can give you is for both you and your ex wife to seek some specialist advice either contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau, or similar free advice service and fully explain the circumstances to them. Your ex wife would probably benefit from seeking advice from a solicitor who specialises in Insolvency Law but these can be expensive, in the first instance seek out the CAB they will know of local leagal teams who offer free advice. Sorry I could not be of further help

Not sure about this, I'll bump it back up in the hope that one of the experts sees it.
