Please take some free advice before looking into a solicitor.

Don't know about proceedings being dropped but until you get a definite date for BR then you can try and sort this yourself with help.

I mentioned a solicitor as did not know if needed to speak to one, would you not take a solicitor to court.

Yes secured employment.

do many people successfully have the bankruptcy proceedings dropped by the judge.

I don't think a solicitor was mentioned.

If they are going to make you bankrupt, then you can go to court and tell the judge what you are offering. It's up to the judge if they agree with the creditor.

Your offer seems fair, I'm sorry, not sure what to suggest.

Where would the £550 per month come from? Have you secured employment?

Speak to CAB or Viki for some free advice - to go after the debtor would probably not be cost effective for you and I doubt the creditor would pay for bankruptcy as it would not be worth it for them.

Hi,

There is no other debt, going after the money owed to us Is a costly procedure ?. We are pretty sure we wouldn't get anything out of them.

Who do I need to speak to a solicitor if so can anyone recommend some one who deals with this.

Cheers

Hi Jack,

As Niobe has said, I suggest you take advice re your options, do you have any other debt? Can you take action against the person not paying you?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Is there any chance of getting payment from the job? If not then seek some advice from either CAB or one of the experts on here. The advice is free and they may be able to help you formulate a payment plan.

It will cost the creditor a lot of money to make you bankrupt so it may just be scaremongering.
