What happens when an attorney files for personal or professional bankruptcy protection? Does the bankruptcy affect their ability to practice law? Or jeopardize their good standing in the state bar? Will any disciplinary action be taken against them? And what happens in terms of the fees/retainer money they have taken from their clients, etc.? What kind of oversight does the state bar provide, if any? I live in Indiana. Thank you.
