Bankruptcy Judge

A bankruptcy judge is a specialized judge who oversees bankruptcy cases in federal court. Their role involves deciding on matters related to individuals or businesses that cannot pay their debts and need legal protection to reorganize their finances or liquidate assets. The judge ensures the bankruptcy process follows legal procedures, addresses disputes between debtors and creditors, and approves plans for debt repayment or asset distribution. Ultimately, their goal is to help achieve a fair resolution while balancing the rights of both debtors and creditors.
