Stephen Parsons' The ABCs of Debt provides the most practical, realistic, and comprehensive tools for today's students to study and master debtor-creditor relations and the bankruptcy process. The ABCs of Debt is unsurpassed in the foundation it lays for students regarding the creation and collection of secured and unsecured debt by both judicial and nonjudicial means. The text then leads them in a practical and realistic manner through Chapter 7, Chapter 13, and Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases in the actual way those cases begin, unfold, and ultimately play out in the offices of attorneys for debtors and creditors and bankruptcy trustees. The use of realistic and thorough case studies throughout the text forms a hands-on approach that bridges the gap between merely understanding debtor/creditor and bankruptcy concepts and knowing how to use them with confidence. Applying the Law exercises and optional drafting exercises develop the practical skills and working knowledge of a paralegal. New to the Sixth Edition: 1.
