About the Book

The ABCs of Debt
A Case Study Approach to Debtor/Creditor Relations and Bankruptcy Law
Second Edition
Stephen P. Parsons

With a hands-on approach that includes case studies and learning-by-doing exercises, Stephen P. Parsons bridges the difference between simply understanding bankruptcy concepts and applying them with confidence, like an experience paralegal. Broad coverage includes bankruptcy law, debt creation, secured transactions, the law of liens, and debt collection.

The thoroughly updated Second Edition of The ABCs of Debt features:

  • Realistic case studies that add a strong skill-building component to any study of bankruptcy law
  • Case excerpts and summaries that link theory to doctrine
  • A sequential ordering of bankruptcy topics that mirrors practice
  • A visually clear and readable format that focuses on central concepts
  • Learn-by-doing exercises, hypothetical problems, examples, sample forms and illustrations to facilitate understanding and mastering of the material
  • Step-by-step instruction for completing a bankruptcy petition as well as the challenging OBF 22A for the Chapter 7 means test, and the OBF 22C for the Chapter 13 determination of commitment period and projected disposable income
  • Though-provoking ethical queries examining issues that can arise in practice
  • Key terms and review questions in every chapter that aid study and review
