The Bankruptcy Process: A Course
This comprehensive course takes you through the life of a bankruptcy case.
From pre-petition to post-discharge, I teach you the intricate details of bankruptcy law.
In addition to these details I also integrate theory, which will help you give you a deeper understanding of the law; and I also cover policy, to underscore the effect of these rules on individuals and society.

1. Introduction
This course goes beyond statutes and case law—it's about understanding how bankruptcy actually works in people's lives, and why it exists at all. From the earliest English insolvency laws to the modern Bankruptcy Code, this body of law has always balanced two competing values: the creditor's right to repayment and the debtor's right to a fresh start.
