Bankruptcy Court
When your debts become overwhelming and you have no other options for settling them, bankruptcy may be your best option. The bankruptcy process can be intimidating, not only because of the stigma associate with bankruptcy, but also because bankruptcy requires you to present your case in court before a judge.

What is Bankruptcy Court?
All bankruptcy cases in the United States are federal cases. As such, every bankruptcy case in the US is heard in a United States District Court in one of the 94 US districts. While district courts have jurisdiction over bankruptcy cases, most refer all cases to bankruptcy courts, which are set up within the district.
The state of Florida has eight bankruptcy court locations:
- Tampa
- Jacksonville
- Orlando
- Tallahassee
- Pensacola
- Miami
- Fort Lauderdale
- West Palm Beach
In each of these locations, the bankruptcy court judge makes the ruling on your case, though you may appeal your verdict to the district court.
When you are going through the bankruptcy process, it is important to hire a knowledgeable bankruptcy attorney to handle your case to ensure you have proper representation when in bankruptcy court.
