Bankruptcy help near you

Wyoming County bankruptcy cases belong in the Middle District of Pennsylvania; Wilkes-Barre, Office 5. Judge Conway. I review Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 options with you in a free consultation. Local foreclosure notices and civil judgments come from county offices; they do not change the federal bankruptcy filing location.

Federal bankruptcy court and Chapter 13 trustee

The Chapter 13 standing trustee is Jack N. Zaharopoulos (official source).

Sheriff sales: check the county's published schedule

Sheriff schedules date and time after receiving papers from prothonotary, typically 90 days after receipt (official source). Check the current property notice and any continuance; a schedule is not confirmation that a particular property will sell.

State-court judgments and civil records

Wyoming County Courthouse, 1 Court House Square, Tunkhannock, PA 18657 (official source).

The county Court of Common Pleas handles state civil cases; bankruptcy is filed in federal court. The county prothonotary or civil division maintains civil filings and judgments.

Local legal aid and housing counseling

North Penn Legal Services; intake 877-953-4250. Eligibility and accepted case types require screening; representation is not guaranteed (official source).

Use HUD's Pennsylvania housing counselor directory to verify an agency's approval and current service area. Legal aid and HUD-approved counseling are different services; eligibility and availability require screening.

How we file your case

We review your income, debts, property, pending lawsuits and any sale notice before recommending a chapter. Filing requires approved credit counseling and complete financial disclosures. I prepare and file the petition electronically, and explain the trustee's requests and the court's next steps. Outcomes depend on your circumstances and the applicable law.
