Our clients typically attend only one meeting, called the Meeting of Creditors, during the course of a bankruptcy case. This meeting is a critical part of the bankruptcy case and it provides an opportunity for the Trustee to ask questions and review the assets, debts, and financial circumstances to determine whether the case should be permitted to proceed routinely. The meeting is scheduled by the Bankruptcy Clerk’s Office after the case is filed. It will be scheduled approximately 20-30 days after the case is filed.
