This authoritative treatise on bankruptcy fraud is an invaluable reference book for bankruptcy law practitioners, white-collar criminal lawyers, prosecutors, judges, restructuring professionals, and academicians. Bankruptcy Crimes is the only book extant on the subject and is unique in its dual perspective and analysis of criminality and bankruptcy law.

Organized crime is renowned for its code of silence; the unavailability of material from government investigative agencies due to its sensitive nature makes the task of the researcher difficult indeed. One source which was used as the basis for the preparation of this case study is court testimony - both criminal and civil - in cases involving suspected organized crime figures. The task of using such sources is a tedious one. In excess of 8,000 pages of narrative testimony were read to prepare this paper, but the source adds an important measure to the further understanding of organized crime and its method of operation.

A bankruptcy laws study guide helps because it will explain what you need to know before you file. You will be able to determine whether or not you should even file for bankruptcy. If you do not have anything that the creditors can take from you, like a car, you may not need to even file for bankruptcy. On the other hand, if you do have personal property that the creditors can take, this guide will let you know under what circumstances you may be able to keep it with bankruptcy. Also, it will explain bankruptcy laws in your state.
