Luck is not involved, but rather each successful debtor begins planning strategically a few weeks or months in advance. These debtors know something that you don’t.

The Eastern District provides examples of petitions, schedules, forms, local rules and official instructions
that may be useful when filing. Be aware that instructions provided are general, and are not a substitutive for
legal advice which may provided by a qualified attorney. The Code prohibits judges, clerks and personnel to provide
debtors with information that may be construed as legal counsel. This provision applies
equally to debtors, creditors, and parties in interest. Individual filing pro se may call trustees and
inquire about case status. Trustee offices generally explain the basis of all objections filed.
