Guide To Oregon Bankruptcy Law

All bankruptcy filings are governed by federal code, which outlines the basic protections offered to petitioners, and the various types of filing, also known as chapters. There are differences between the various federal district courts, as outlined below.

• Oregon Procedural Differences 
  Each court may design its own specific procedures and steps for filing within its district. Here is a link to the District of Oregon Local Rules of the United States Bankruptcy Court.
• Oregon Bankruptcy Forms
  Each district court may create its own forms for it's residents to use in filing their bankruptcy petitions. This is one reason that there is an advantage to using a local attorney with experience working with the unique forms from the Oregon District Court.
