Managing overwhelming debt can feel like an impossible task, especially when it includes both student loans and other financial obligations. This week, Walker & Walker is celebrating a powerful success story where Attorney Joshua Peterson helped discharge $82,000 in student loans for a client. On top of that, our team successfully eliminated over $250,000 in additional debt, giving our client a fresh start and renewed financial freedom.
The Challenge: Over $330,000 in Total Debt
Our client came to us with more than $330,000 in total debt. For years, they struggled to keep up with minimum payments while managing everyday expenses. The weight of this debt not only impacted their financial well-being but also took a toll on their mental and emotional health.
The biggest challenge? Their student loans seemed insurmountable, with many people believing these types of loans are nearly impossible to discharge in bankruptcy.
The Solution: Expert Legal Guidance and Strategy
Attorney Joshua Peterson took on the challenge of tackling the client’s student loans. Through careful preparation, Joshua demonstrated that our client faced undue financial hardship and had no realistic ability to repay the $82,000 in student loans. This is no small feat, as the laws governing student loan discharge in bankruptcy are notoriously strict.
Meanwhile, the rest of our team focused on the client’s other debts, creating a comprehensive bankruptcy strategy that allowed us to:
- Eliminate over $250,000in unsecured debt, including credit cards and medical bills.
- Protect the client’s essential assets, such as their home, car, and retirement savings.
- Provide a clear path to financial recovery and long-term stability.
The Result: A Fresh Start and a Brighter Future
Thanks to Attorney Peterson’s advocacy and our team’s dedicated efforts, the client now has a clean slate. With over $330,000 in total debt discharged, they can finally focus on rebuilding their financial future without the constant stress of overwhelming debt.
They’ve already expressed how relieved they feel, knowing they no longer have to make endless payments toward debt they could never fully repay.
