US Trustee Program

The U.S. Trustee Program is a part of the Department of Justice that oversees the bankruptcy process in the United States. Its main role is to ensure that bankruptcy cases are handled fairly and efficiently, protecting the interests of creditors and the integrity of the bankruptcy system. The program monitors the conduct of bankruptcy filers, manages bankruptcy estates, approves or rejects bankruptcy plans, and provides information to individuals considering bankruptcy. Essentially, it serves as a watchdog to maintain order and justice in financial distress situations.
