Alternative addresses for debt on the bankruptcy petition.

Asked 9 months ago - New York, NY

Flag

I have noticed that my lawyer listed alternative addresses for creditors as if they were separate creditors, and both of them had the same balances. Is this a correct way of doing things? Should he have listed the alternative addresses with 0 balances, or it doesn't matter? My lawyer seems young and inexperienced and I don't know if he did the right thing.
