Not many people like bankruptcy. That includes lenders because usually they don't get their money back and once it's written off through bankruptcy then that's it....it's gone.
For debtors, many people can avoid bankruptcy by just talking to their creditors.
The first step is the hardest, but the relief will be felt both sides (although it's hard to imagine a finance firm with a heart). Bankruptcy is a last resort for all lenders and is used as a way of ensuring you can't hit them or their associated businesses again as well as to tie up their accounting requirements.
Bankruptcy can be avoided, with considerable difficulty and at high cost right up until the court appearance provided the Petitioning Creditor requests and all the other creditors agree to cancel the hearing, however, it is not worth risking such an 11th hour reprieve.
