Debt Free!: Your Guide to Personal Bankruptcy Without Shame

I purchased this book and Surviving Financial Disasters by Tiffany R. Love (which came with a CD ROM with BK Forms and sample court motions). Both books are outstanding.

After keeping the wolves at bay for several years, it was time to make some serious financial decisions. In researching my options, this book was, by far, the most useful. Written with humour and grace, the Cahers understand the emotional toll taken when you are robbing Peter to pay Paul. The pros and cons of bankruptcy are explicitly discussed - leaving the reader to make an informed choice.If you are reading this review, chances are you are in a very difficult situation. I recommend that you this book before making a decision.

I work in the legal field. I don't do bankruptcy work. But I often get asked questions. So, I was looking for a book that would answer the most basic questions without getting too complicated and to find a book I could refer folks to who wanted to know the basics and who would be able to understand what was being written without having a legal dictionary at their side. This book answered all those needs. It is written in simple English (no legal jargon) and it covers just about everything you'd need to know, from what kinds of bankruptcy there are, to what to do before you file, to what you do to re-establish your credit afterwards. It has charts in the back for easy reference. Even if you aren't contemplating filing bankruptcy, this is good stuff to know. Sooner or later we will probably know someone who is in financial trouble, and having a basic understanding of bankruptcy can be a godsend to talking with our friends about bankruptcy and helping them through these troubled times.

This was a highly informative book and makes the reader feel better about the hard choice of bankrucy. offers good tips and advice on the legal aspect of bankruptcy as well as alternatives and rebuilding credit after bankrupcy.

This book was the best preparation we could have had for our appointment with an attorney. It was an easy-to-read guide to a difficult subject, written with compassion and loaded with information for a variety of situations. I would recommend this book without reservation to anyone with financial problems
