I would like to know if it is possible to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy after losing a lawsuit that requires paying delinquent bills, or do I have to file before going to trial? Thank you.

You can file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy at any time. Just because a creditor may have obtained a judgment against you does not make any difference, other than how you classify the debt in the petition.
