My (soon to be) ex-brother in law is bankrupt, but none of our side of the family knew . . . including my sister! As a result things have got very complex & very difficult. Is there any action she can take due to the fact that she was not informed of the Bankruptcy? How can she not be informed of it by the trustees or someone? Is there no law governing this?

Hi jm
I'm afraid not, your ex b-i-l is under no obligation to inform anyone, not even the creditors to whom the debts are owed.

That's the job of the Official Receiver's office handling his case.

If the complications include a property with equity which he still retains an interest in then your sister needs urgent professional advice.

Hi JM
My ex-husband went BR and i didn't find out until after i had kicked him out for other reasons. It's not very nice but i do hope that your sister gets things sorted out and there is a happy outcome
