Student Loan Topics

This panel explores the current state of the law around § 523(a)(8), focusing on the agreed hardship discharges of certain federal student loans under the guidance issued by the Department of Justice and the Department of Education. While walking attendees through the new standards, the panelists will provide practical advice and practice pointers on how to gather information, from the client interview to external resources to assist the client in collecting loan and payment history information, and how to correctly complete both the complaint and, where appropriate, the attestation form.
