This Chapter 11 debtor questionnaire provides a list of preliminary information required for commencing a Chapter 11 proceeding. The Questionnaire should be completed by the debtor's management and personnel so that bankruptcy counsel can complete the petition and assess relief that may be necessary early in the case and at later stages.

The Questionnaire has links to Standard Documents that include forms for providing detailed information necessary to file for Chapter 11 with important drafting notes and considerations. The drafting notes include specific considerations under the Local Bankruptcy Rules for Delaware and the Southern District of New York (SDNY) Bankruptcy Courts. For other bankruptcy jurisdictions, counsel should review the local bankruptcy rules particular to that court
