Description

The Claim Secure Formulary is a crucial document for bankruptcy proceedings, particularly for Chapter 11 and Chapter 9 cases, as it lists the 20 largest unsecured claims against the debtor. This form is essential for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in bankruptcy filings, as it ensures compliance with Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure. Users must accurately complete the creditor's name, address, and the nature of the claim, including the amount and any conditions such as 'contingent' or 'disputed.' The form explicitly advises against including the names of minor children as creditors, instead requiring the use of initials and the guardian's name. It is important for users to prepare this list diligently to avoid any obstacles during the bankruptcy process. Filling out the Claim Secure Formulary can streamline communication with creditors and is necessary for presenting a clear financial picture to the court. Legal professionals must keep the information organized and ready for filing alongside other bankruptcy forms to ensure a smooth process.
