Post-Bankruptcy: What should I be doing?
Many times, debtors are concerned with what they should be doing after their bankruptcy. Debtors should do whatever they can to get bills in their name in order to rebuild credit. This must be done in a reasonable capacity, but it will help the debtor get financing and other lines of credit in the future.
Debtors should frequently check their credit report to ensure that past debts that were included in the bankruptcy and discharged are not being reported inaccurately on the report. If this does happen, this may be a discharge injunction violation and the debtor may have legal remedies. Another post-filing tip: read every document you sign for! Many times, debtors are forced into a bankruptcy because they signed bad deals and were forced into the bankruptcy. Read and comprehend everything you sign for.
If your creditors are continuing to contact you after a debt has been properly discharged or if something is showing on your credit report wrongfully, you should consult with an experienced bankruptcy attorney.
