Short answer
Georgia’s districts are Northern (Atlanta and others), Middle (including Columbus), and Southern. Brock & Stout’s Georgia bankruptcy filing work is currently aligned with Columbus intake—not an Atlanta bankruptcy office. Your address still controls venue.
Venue is a federal question (28 U.S.C. § 1408). Columbus-area cases often belong in the Middle District of Georgia; Atlanta-division cases belong in the Northern District. Confirm the district map. Brock & Stout does not treat the Atlanta office as a bankruptcy filing location.

Section 341 requires a meeting of creditors. You must appear, testify under oath, and answer the trustee’s questions about your papers and assets. Creditors may attend. In many consumer cases they do not. It is not the discharge hearing and not a trial.
