It IS possible to bankrupt your Student Loan!,
This review is from: Bankrupt Your Student Loans: And Other Discharge Strategies (Paperback)
For anyone in financial straits who feels hopeless about massive student loan debt, this is a MUST READ. It is written in layperson's terms and explains step by step why it has been virtually impossible for people to discharge their student loans in bankruptcy. Also see Alan Collinge's book The Student Loan Scam. This is a public issue that needs to be addressed by Congress. Check out studentloanjustice.org.

Excellent Book That Gives You A Chance,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bankrupt Your Student Loans: And Other Discharge Strategies (Paperback)
This is an excellent book that gives you a chance to have your student loans discharged, or at least reduced. It gives detailed instructions for preparing your own case, and representing yourself in bankruptcy court, thereby saving thousands of dollars in attorney fees. The author has actually successfully handled his own student loan adversarial proceeding, so he knows what he is talking about.
If you have student loan debt, you should buy this book.

Save your Money,
By Nicholas (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bankrupt Your Student Loans: And Other Discharge Strategies (Paperback)
Any book entitled "Bankrupt your Student Loans" is misleading to the vulnerable people out there willing to try anything to solve a student loan debt problems. Unless you are permanently disabled or have other (usually medical) problems that rise to that level of gravity, you will not be able to discharge student loans in bankruptcy. Other loans can be discharged, but not student loans unless "undue hardship" is established. The courts have made this an almost impossibly high standard and the process of proving it is not something non-lawyers can practically do as it involves expert testimony and a trial. If you are really is disastrous straights and likely to be unable to ever work again in your life because of health issues, try contacting the Volunteer Lawyers Project in Boston. Alternatively, if you're like most other people out there that just have too little income right now to make the requested student loan payments, there are resources out there to help rehabilitate loans and get into an income-based repayment plan. In either case, save the money you would otherwise spend on this book.
