The Pre-Bankruptcy Counseling Workshop from ClearPoint Credit Counseling Solutions* is a seminar that is offered for those that want to attend in person.  Participants can ask questions and benefit from the experiences of other people in the class. Many find taking a workshop the most enjoyable and motivating method of learning.

At this time, our Pre-Bankruptcy Workshops are only available in Los Angeles, Merced, and Fresno, California.

How The Workshop Process Works:

  1. Once you have submitted your Bankruptcy Packet, either online or by mail, you will be contacted to select a workshop date and time.  Or you may call ClearPoint at 888.560.2227 (CCCS) to request the Bankruptcy Packet be mailed to you.  Once you have selected your appointment day and time, you will be booked into that workshop and sent a confirmation letter.
  2. At the end of the workshop presentation, you will take a short survey and the presenter will answer any remaining questions.
  3. After the workshop, the presenter will hand out certificates to all attendees.
