   Bankruptcy vs. IRS, Student Loans & Your Mortgage

   Can bankruptcy eliminate IRS tax debt? What happens to student loans? And if you're $60,000 behind on your mortgage, can Chapter 13 actually save your home? In this episode of Law and Reality, Brian Small, Jeff Linden, and Kelsey Simasko tackle three of the toughest bankruptcy questions consumers face. They explain when income taxes may be dischargeable, what happens when the IRS has a tax lien, how student debt is handled in Chapter 13, and how bankruptcy may provide a path for homeowners facing serious mortgage delinquency.

   Filing Bankruptcy: Do You Have to Give Up Your Lifestyle?

   f you file Chapter 13 bankruptcy, how much of your current lifestyle can you actually keep? Can you drive a newer car, own a boat, take a vacation, contribute to your 401(k), pay private-school tuition—or even maintain a country-club membership while paying creditors only a fraction of what you owe? In this episode of Law and Reality, Brian Small, Jeff Linden, and Kelsey Simasko use the hypothetical case of Bill and Mary to examine where the bankruptcy system draws the line between reasonable household expenses and maintaining the "good life." They also explain how Chapter 13 can help with mortgage delinquency, property-tax foreclosure, auto-loan defaults, and certain tax problems.
