How long after the bankruptcy is filed will the creditors stop calling?
Once a creditor or bill collector becomes aware that the debtor has filed for bankruptcy protection, he/she must stop all efforts to collect the debt. If a creditor continues to use collection tactics after notification of the bankruptcy proceeding, he/she may be liable for court sanctions and attorneys fees.
