WHY ARE CREDITORS ADDRESSES SO IMPORTANT?
The debt associated with a creditor who doesn’t get notice of the filing of a bankruptcy is not discharged. This means that such a creditor would still have all its original rights to try to collect its debt. For example, they could still call, write, or sue you. We suggest that if you have more than one address for a creditor that you give us all the addresses you have. In this way we can be more assured that the notice of your bankruptcy filing will reach the creditor. If a notice comes back to us, we will ask you to search your records for a current and correct address. This is very important and is well worth the time and trouble it may take to obtain a current address.
