Once bankruptcy is filed, the bankruptcy clerk sends a notice to all of the listed creditors. It usually takes about 2 weeks from the date of filing before creditors are ‘officially’ notified by the court. A debtor can notify creditors immediately after filing. Creditors who continue to collect a debt after being notified of a bankruptcy filing may be liable for sanctions by the court and attorney fees for their conduct.
