Truly a life changing service
Truly a life changing service. Their system walked me through the entire process. When I went to file my Ch.7 at the court house, the clerk assisting me knew that because I used Upsolve, that my paperwork would be perfect and without any errors. I also saved thousands of dollars on legal fees and I am forever grateful.
Upsolve experience
Upsolve was fast to respond and very professional in every step of the way. It was the best experience I have had. I waited for legal aid to assist me with several emails and calls with no luck it took them 3 months to get back to me by that time. I had filed and had my bankruptcy discharged thanks to upsolve.
My bankruptcy process through upsolve…

This is a wonderful site that helps guide you through the bankruptcy process
This is a wonderful site that helps guide you (and more) through the bankruptcy process. It was through sheer luck that I heard about them. It was actually recommended to me by a bankruptcy lawyer. It walks you through the process step-by-step, guiding you through the process for whatever particular state you are considering filing bankruptcy in. Every bankruptcy case is different, mine was a simple chapter 7. Other bankruptcies might be more complicated depending on your assets and things like that, so if it's very involved, I would recommend hiring a lawyer. But even then, you can still use the website to "test-drive" your potential bankruptcy, and see what is the best fit for you.
Helpful during a stressful time...
I was very nervous when I started this experience, but Upsolved was the perfect site that guided me throughout my elderly mom's bankruptcy. I sometimes had to research some information elsewhere and make small tweaks to the documents provided by Upsolve, but as a whole, everything went well. I would definitely, definitely recommend this site to others going through the stressful process of bankruptcy.
Better than an attorney.
I wasn’t able to afford an attorney and was overwhelmed with the state’s paperwork. Upsolve came to the rescue! I was more prepared at my hearing than the people who let their attorneys do everything. The judge commended me on filing myself, even. I recommend highly before paying an attorney.
I am appreciative of this service
I am appreciative of this service! It took me to the end and I would have given 5 stars if there was more information regarding what to do at the end and what to expect. Regardless, this service is amazing and I would highly recommend!
I was so unsure and skeptical about the whole process
I was so unsure and skeptical about filing for bankruptcy but Upsolve made the process seamless! When I wanted to give up they kept sending me reminders to not stop now. Up till the very end Upsolve was very helpful and saw me through it all! Thank you Upsolve!!!
Do it yourself with Upsolve
I could not have filed the dozens of pages of required documents and gotten a waiver of the filing fee without Upsolve. Do it yourself with the help you get from Upsolve. You don't need a lawyer. Just follow all the steps and provide all documentation required. All you have to pay for are the inexpensive, required credit counseling completion certificates from recommended companies that can be done online. Thank you Upsolve.

Wonderful experience
I was recently disabled and could not afford my current life style and had to downsize. I didn't have lawyer fees or any income for that matter. I came across UPSOLVE and became curious and took a shot. It was unbelievablely easy. I had three corrections to make and then I was ready to print and file. When I went to the court house the clerk mentioned they get a lot of these filings and it makes it easy for them. Wow! Thats it? Weird ok! 2 months later I was informed it had been discharged. I saved myself $1200 to $1800 dollars and just did it myself. This experience could not have went any better. Thank you, UPSOLVE!
The did not offer anything of the sort…
The did not offer anything of the sort of these positive reviews I am reading. When I called and was referred to a Lawyer to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy the lawyers fee was THREE THOUSAND Dollars. Umm, that's not free. I feel their site and service is very misleading

I was so stressed about how to pay for my bankruptcy filing when I found Upsolve. I'm already broke, how am I supposed to pay for a lawyer too? Although a long process (it does take months) it was easy to take on myself. And now I am discharged and back on track! I am very grateful to have found you all, keep up the good work
This was the most amazing walkthrough…
This was the most amazing walkthrough from A to Z. Anything that was misunderstood was easily explained and streamlined the entire process! This is definitely a worthy service to appreciate and use for anyone wanting to file bankruptcy pro se!
I had an absolutely wonderful…
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Upsolve throughout my bankruptcy process! I was honestly amazed at how much easier and less stressful the process was compared to trying to do everything on my own. Hiring a bankruptcy attorney was extremely expensive, so finding Upsolve was truly a blessing.
I was especially nervous when it came time to file my paperwork because my first attempt at filing on my own had so many errors. However, this time was completely different! Everything went smoothly, my paperwork was in order, and the entire process went exactly as Upsolve explained it would.
What I appreciated most was how convenient, easy to follow, and encouraging the entire experience was. Upsolve gave me the confidence to move forward without feeling overwhelmed or defeated.
**I am happy to say that my bankruptcy has officially been discharged!** This is more than just a fresh financial start for me. It represents another chapter of overcoming obstacles, rebuilding my life, and moving toward the success I know is ahead of me.
I am now moving forward to my next chapter of **SUCCESS, financial freedom, and new beginnings!**
**THANK YOU, UPSOLVE!** You made what once felt impossible become possible, and I am truly grateful! ❤️
