Illinois | Bankruptcy
Someone owes me money for services rendered, but they filed bankruptcy in Illinois and then moved to Florida. I called them and emailed several times, but they will not answer. I know if I sent them to collection before they filed, I would be out of luck on collecting. But what if I sent them to collection after they filed bankruptcy, would they then be responsible for that bill?

If you weren't notified by the court to come and defend your rights, then it probably wasn't and you can still try and collect.
