I plan to file bankruptcy to stay in my home what kind of information will I have to have with me when I visitthe lawyer. I am filing chapter 13

Each attorney will want you to bring different documents.  It would be a good idea to call your attorney and ask he/she what documents he/she wants you to bring. Usually, you should bring your tax returns for the last few years.  It would be a good idea to bring your pay stubs from your employer, and/or proof of any source of income (to qualify for a Chapter 13 you must have a consistent source of income).  Lastly, you might bring copies of all outstanding loans and debts you have.  It would also be beneficial to bring a list of all your assets, as well. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information.
