The Bankruptcy Self-Help Resource Center is a service of The Pro Bono Project whereby self-represented bankruptcy filers can find helpful information and services about their bankruptcy cases. On the first Friday of each month from 9 AM until noon, volunteers are available via telephone hotline (504-581-4043) and email (bankruptcyselfhelp@probono-no.org) to assist filers with the completion of bankruptcy petitions and schedules, to help guide filers through the court’s new Electronic Self-Representation (eSR) system, and to provide referrals for attorneys or other legal resources.

Volunteers do not provide legal advice or representation, but assist visitors with legal forms, information, and referrals.

This service is made possible through a generous grant of the American College of Bankruptcy Foundation.
