Going bankrupt can be a worrying and stressful experience. You don’t need to go through it on your own.
The Bankruptcy Guide assistance service will support you through each step of the process. Everything from completing the application form to answering follow up questions from the official receiver.
The service is provided by bankruptcy expert James Falla.
We don’t operate a call centre. You get direct access to James. You can call him any time you have a question or need to discuss any aspect of your case.
Summary of Bankruptcy Assistance Service
Our bankruptcy assistance service covers far more than just helping you complete your on-line application. It includes all of the following:
Completion of your application form
We work through your on-line application together to ensure you understand exactly what information you are required to provide and that nothing is missed.
Preparing your income and expenses budget
Getting your income and expenses budget correct is a vital part of your application form. The information you provide will determine whether or not you have to make an ongoing payment towards your debt.
We will ensure your budget is completed correctly and ensure nothing is missed.
This is particularly useful for self employed people in terms of income calculations (i.e. distinguishing between business income and personal drawings after a provision for tax)
Getting you ready for your interview with the Official Receiver
Once you are bankrupt, you may be required to have a telephone interview with the Official Receiver (on rare occasions this is face to face). We will ensure you know exactly what to expect and how to answer the questions put to you.
Assistance with any follow-up paperwork or questions
You will receive various paperwork from the Official Receiver. We will explain what the documents are and how to complete them. We will also assist you with drafting your responses to any follow-up questions.
Ongoing support during the 12 months you are bankrupt
You will normally remain bankrupt for 12 months. If you have any questions or concerns during that time, you can simply pick up the phone and we will chat them through.

An increase to the standard fee may be charged if you require a more in depth assistance. This may be the case if you are self employed, a homeowner or are currently residing outside of the UK.

“I have been a financial advisor for 20 years. When I needed financial help, I needed to speak to someone that was empathetic, professional, and could answer my many questions. James is all of that and more. He has been patient, professional, empathetic, firm and diligent. He always responds to my phone calls and emails the same or next day. He has made what would have been the most stressful year of my life, relatively stress free.
James has been by my side for the last 18 months, and I feel I have gained a friend. I couldnt have done it without your help, so I am forever thankful.”

“James, you were simply fantastic. You guided me through the process perfectly. Your manner with me was impeccable and I could not have wanted more. From the very first meeting I made you aware of my condition which can affect my understanding and you took it upon yourself to make sure I understood the options that were available to me, but more importantly, which options were appropriate for me.
The feeling of relief that this chapter of worry is behind me is down, in the most part, to yourself – had you not been so approachable, I likely would not have felt comfortable discussing my situation with you. The services you offer, and more importantly you, have put at ease the most extended and worrisome years of my life. Thank you”

“I used James’s service in 2020 when I declared bankruptcy. His help was great, especially during times when I didn’t know what I was supposed to do.
Now, I had to deal with the last part of the whole experience, removing the charge from my property. James was again, extremely helpful, guiding me in the right direction and suggesting the right things to say. The charge was removed and my final offer was much lower than what they wanted me to pay initially.
Thank you very much James! A true professional that I can’t recommend enough.”

Your absolute confidence and support throughout the whole procedure, carried out over just a few weeks was really great. I couldn’t have managed very well on my own and would definitely have got bogged down with it all. Your fee has been worth absolutely every penny.
Although it was obviously my mismanagement which caused all the problems, I’d arrived in a position which I couldn’t cope with and you’ve helped me totally deal with it.
