THE 60-MINUTE LAWYER

The principle of a fresh start is the very essence of bankruptcy relief. Chapters 7 and 13 provide powerful tools for the taxpayer who is unable to find relief from unreasonable IRS demands or unrelenting collection action. Who can benefit from these tax relief programs? How effective are these programs in discharging, repaying, or otherwise resolving claims for taxes, interest, and penalties? How can debtors use the threat of bankruptcy or the bankruptcy plan process as leverage in negotiations with the IRS?
