Bankruptcy Proof of Claim Form

A Bankruptcy Proof of Claim Form is a document that a creditor files to formally assert their right to receive part of the debtor’s assets during bankruptcy proceedings. It details the amount owed and the basis for the claim. This form helps the bankruptcy court and the debtor's case determine how much, if any, the creditor will recover. Filing a proof of claim is an essential step for creditors to participate in the distribution of the debtor’s remaining assets under bankruptcy laws.
