    Default Re: Can You Convert a Bankruptcy Without.a Lawyer

    Is it possible? Certainly and in many cases it won't even be particularly complicated. The exact procedure can vary somewhat between bankruptcy courts, so check the local court rules.

    Some debtors will have difficulty converting the bankruptcy without legal assistance, or will have complicated bankruptcy issues that could make the conversion more difficult, in which case they will benefit from consulting bankruptcy lawyer. (Even if things seem straightforward, anybody who can get a free consultation with a bankruptcy lawyer should consider doing so.)
