about the
Western District of Wisconsin
Bankruptcy Court
  Obviously this is not the official website of the Western District Court. The link is below, but some general information that is not readily available can be useful.

  
  Western District bankruptcies are handled out of two offices, one in Eau Claire and the other in Madison. 341 Hearings are held in various offices. The map below will take to the Court website and a map that will show you where the hearings are held depending on where you live.

Hiring an attorney nearer the hearing locations is more cost effective. Although it might mean you need to travel to see an attorney, the attorney will be closer to the Court, saving you money in the long run.

The two primary office addresses are:


Madison

U.S. Bankruptcy Court
120 N. Henry Street
P.O. Box 548
Madison, WI 53701
  
Eau Claire

U.S. Bankruptcy Court
Federal Courthouse
500 S. Barstow Commons
Eau Claire, WI 54701


Except for some procedural questions, the Clerks that answer the phones can NOT offer legal advice. They can't even tell you if you should or not file specific forms.
