Will my bankruptcy be published in the newspaper?

Answer by  YourMoneyAnswerGal (654)

Yes, your bankruptcy is public record and may be published with other public notices such as divorce, marriage, property transactions corporations formed and dissolved and the like. These notices are small and filled with legalese. They're rarely read by the general public.

No. It will be public record, but it will not be published in the newspaper because there is still a privacy act.

Yes it will. Bankruptcy records are considered public records and once a month all the bankruptcy filings are usually listed in the Sunday paper.
