President William McKinley – The Cosigner Who Filed

William McKinley was elected President in 1897.  Filing for bankruptcy in 1893, while he was governor of Ohio, didn’t stop him at all! He ran for president 4 years after filing, and won! And it William McKinleyshouldn’t stop you!

McKinley co-signed on a $130,000 loan for a friend to keep a business open. The friend’s business closed and McKinley was left with the debt. McKinley filed bankruptcy under the Bankruptcy Act of 1867. Back then,   bankruptcy gave you protection from garnishment while paid back creditors, much like Chapter 13 today. 

Voters did not care about McKinley’s financial problems. He was reelected governor and then elected twice as President of the United States. McKinley sought help for his financial problems.

Clients come to Geraci Law for multiple reasons.   They want ANSWERS!   They want answers they can rely on.  Geraci Law has over 60 attorneys who understand every aspect of student loans in bankruptcy and how to discharge student loans OUTSIDE of bankruptcy!

How to get rid of student loans OUTSIDE of bankruptcy:  If you are on Social Security Disability, apply for an “administrative discharge”. You will have to show thesGSL Imagee things:

  1. You must have a federally insured student loan. This doesn’t work on private loans or tuition.
  2. You must be on Social Security Disability: permanently disabled for any kind of work
  3. You can’t have any other assets, such as a pension or 401K.

So, you don’t need our help if you are totally disabled, and Social Security says so, and you have no assets.

Why is bankruptcy like baseball?

Geraci law knows how you feel when you’re in debt. Studies have shown most folks who would rather talk about their toilet habits or sex life than how much money or debt they have. Does this sound like you? You are 60 years old and live with a lot of economic uncertainty. You and your husband fight about money, often regret the purchases you make, and save nothing for retirement? Worse yet you have little or no pension, and you’re worried about healthcare?Baseball

For sure, you don’t know anything about the law, and you know even less about bankruptcy law. Bankruptcy is the Great American Law. Bankruptcy and baseball both start with the letter B.

Bankruptcy is a lot older than baseball.  The first officially recorded baseball game in U.S. history took place on June 19, 1846, in Hoboken, New Jersey: the “New York Nine” defeated the Knickerbockers, 23–1, in four innings

So you probably know a lot more about baseball than you know about bankruptcy. Bankruptcy and baseball are both good things. Baseball allows you to forget your troubles for 9 innings, and root for your home team. Bankruptcy allows you to get out of debt and get a fresh start so you’re not paying off old debt with money you should be saving for your retirement.
