Book Description
Recently, reorganizations, restructurings, and bankruptcies have replaced IPOs as the common financial vehicle of the times. However, these distressed companies can still provide an avenue for profitable investing. This eagerly anticipated new reference helps guide you through this treacherous landscape in order to master the multi-move chess-like strategies required to achieve financially advantageous results for your portfolio. It is the most up-to-date and comprehensive book on the market to deal with the myriad of issues surrounding a distressed company.
Providing theoretical and practical insight, Distressed Debt Analysis: Strategies for Speculative Investors presents a conceptual, but not overly technical, outline of the financial and bankruptcy law context in which restructurings take place. The book covers the broader financial environment of the reorganization and the basic process of investment analysis and investment strategies. The author uses numerous real-world examples and case studies to emphasize important concepts and critical issues.
The developments that have created these extraordinary investment opportunities have also created tremendous demand for professionals with experience and knowledge in the restructuring process. Distressed Debt Analysis: Strategies for Speculative Investors addresses the complete knowledge needs of investors and professionals in the burgeoning world of financially distressed companies. It is perfect for bankruptcy departments of law firms, restructuring advisory groups, turnaround consulting firms, and reorganization and distressed securities departments of investment banks.

Invaluable.......2007-05-07
Extremely helpful in preparing our new hires - it is required reading. This book will be a desk reference for years to come.
Great & Comprehensive Practical Review.......2007-01-05
Unlike many academic books, this is a practical analysis of distressed debt, the bankruptcy process, and all the related financial, accounting and valuation issues that arise in this context. It is well written and well organized.
Some other books on the topic go into significantly more detail in esoteric issues; however this book is a must for a grounded detailed understanding of the topic. I have recommended this book to a number of colleagues in the industry and all were equally appreciative.
must buy.......2006-03-14
It's a must buy for people in high-yield/distressed analysis. I was suggested this book at my first day at work.
A Complete Introduction .......2005-11-02
The premise of this book is really quite simple.
Identify securities (bonds, stocks or whatever) from companies that are in trouble. Buy these securities when other investors are ignoring or even selling them. Then when the company gets turned around, you can make a fortune. What you don't want to do is buy these securities only to see the companies go out of business so that your securities are now completely worthless.
As you might guess from the title, this book is about how to analyze distressed companies that offer this potential investment path. It covers virtually every aspect of finding such companies, determining if the proposed investment is feasible, explains the differences in the company going through one of the various bankruptcy procedures, the legal and financial due diligence issues, and more. The final result is a set of basic investment strategies and analytical techniques, complete with case studies and referrences to numerous real-world examples to emphasize important concepts and critical issues.
Along with the book is a companion web site that offers additional information, checklists, sample letters, and more.
This book is a complete introduction to this new and emerging field.
Valuable insights, useful commentary, and professionally written........2005-10-22
Like many of us, perhaps you've owned some bonds that have fallen into junk status or worse, distress/bankruptcy. In most cases, did you throw up your arms either selling at a loss or confused by smallprint mail solicitations? Stephen Moyer is an absolute pro and de-mystifies what some may think of as a blackbox only understood by investment specialists, asset pirates, and/or bankruptcy lawyers.
Conversely, if you are a professional and seeking to augment your understanding, Moyer provides insightful commentary on areas like negotiation leverage points, key area to control, legal bounds of control, pre & post-bankruptcy valuation approaches, and comparisons to real deals done recently in the marketplace. Most of his examples are from 1998-2003, and he tries to use contemporary issues to highlight arguments. Unfortunately, you will not find the most recent Bankruptcy Code reforms which commenced Oct 17, 2005. For instance, he states on page 77 that management can "...extend the [bankruptcy] exclusivity period virtually indefinitely...", which today is essentially limited to 18 months. Although a shortcoming to the book, any professional investor would have access to materials to become up-to-date on the recent reforms.
Moyer's CV reads long: Stanford Law, Chicago MBA, CFA, CPA, and Drexel Lambert heritage. Obviously, he knows what he is talking about. His writing interests do seem to be lawyer-ly; for instance, he spends an inordinate amount of time explaining issues around confidentiality agreements and duties. But, I appreciated his clear and concise style and sentences. No arrogance in his style nor is he trying to sell his current firm.
Excellent book. Strongly recommend despite the price.

A MUST HAVE FOR EVERYONE.......2007-05-13
I LOVE IT! I recieved this book about a month ago and it was the best and smartest purchase I've ever made. My husband and I were looking to move to another house, but because of some financial hardship two years ago his credit score had dropped. We called one of the "credit repair compainies" and found it would cost over $700 just for a couple of months service. I felt that price was too high. So I decided since this is something we could do ourselves why not give it a try. I started reading and highlighting the book 10 minutes after I got it. This book has something for everyone, it doesn't matter if you are trying to build credit, going thru a Bankruptcy or being pressured by collections. GET THIS BOOK. Our score has already jumped 40 points in the first month, and keeps rising. I believe in a year we will have a score of 800. It is really helpful and I can not say enough wounderful things about how much money this book will save us in the future.
If you are on a time crunch to raise your credit score I advise (from personal experience) to pull your credit report from all three bureaus before you get the book.
The best $67.00 I have ever spent.......2006-07-17
Greetings To All. I would rate this book a perfect 10 if I could. I want to take this time to let everyone know that the information in this book is allowing me to truly understand the various credit laws, FICO & Vantage scores, ways to fight incorrect information on your credit report and so much more. My credit score is now in the mid-600's. It increased about 80 points. I was able to obtain a Chase Mastercard and a VISA as well. I am learning how to use these credit cards to build my buying power. This book shows you all the do's and things to avoid. I have no doubt that the Credit Secrets Bible is going to help me get a credit score of 800 after I have made bad decisions regarding my credit. At first, I was skeptical, but my sister ensured me it was worth it. I am so glad I did! Still not convinced, email me @
anitragipson@yahoo.com. I am not lying because it really works. It really works!
GET THIS BOOK TODAY!!!
Excellent Credit Repair Resource.......2006-01-12
This book is worth every penny I paid. 100% as advertised. I was able to remove several items off of my credit report and increased my FICO score by 48 points in one month! This ended up getting me a loan on my new car at 3.9% instead of 7.5% I'll end up saving over $3000 over the 60 months for the loan. One wish - can you make a hardcover edition of this book? I used mine so much it's falling apart! I have more highlighted paragraphs in this book than I do in my regular church bible. Go figure. Again, thanks for such a great resource!

Customer Reviews:
The right tools.......2007-04-24
If you are taking an introductory course in Bankruptcy, get a copy of this book - And use it! If your course also includes Chapter 11 Reorganizations, I would also recommend that you get a copy of Chapter Chapter 11 Business Reorganizations: For Business Leaders, Accountants And Lawyers. They are useful before exams. But I recommend getting them at the start of the semester.
Excellent.......2007-04-10
This is a great supplement that covers the 2005 changes in the code. Watch out for other supplements that are still owrking off of the pre-2005 amendments.
Awesome.......2007-01-03
This book made the new bankruptcy code changes actually easy to understand. It saved my life and my grade!
Good job.......2004-05-10
The author did a good job organizing the information in this book.
I would also recommend Surviving Financial Disasters by Tiffany R. Love which comes with a CD ROM and actual sample court documents from someone who has been there and done that. Also tells what to expect after you filed your papers.

Excellent as a textbook.......2006-11-22
I use this book in teaching a Bankruptcy class to California paralegal students. It is an excellent introduction to the bankruptcy system, and includes discussions of both consumer and business bankruptcies (with a definite emphasis on the consumer side). I expecially appreciate the thorough treatment of the BAPA (laws that changed in October 2005).

Decent Book.......2006-05-26
This is a decent book. I am a 3L law student thinking of doing collections. This book is an excellent choice for the average person with no legal education. As a law student though I always expect more though but it does set out the basics in an unbiased manner with the law printed in the appendix. Definitely worth the price.
STAY AWAY from To Pay or Not to Pay: Insider Secrets to Beating Credit Card Debt and Creditors by Stanley G. Hilton. I also purchased that book and it was horrible. Even as a 3L I know that many of the "solutions" he outlines are not realistic (suing a doctor for malpractice to stop a collection is pure insanity). Stick with DiMaggio's book.
Collection Agency Harassment: - ok.......2006-04-17
so -so review, Mostly common sense. But a few good tips on mounting a counter attack although it doesn't let you know the practicalities of enforcing the FDCPA, namely that federal and state agencies typically don't respond to your complaints except with a form letter and no action.
Empowering!.......2005-06-23
This book gave me the information I needed to take control. Collection agencies do not have a right to harass you when obviously you've hit a rough time. After reading this book I am no longer intimated by a letter or phone call because I now know my rights and how I can use them.
This book was a great source of education and empowering!
This Book Says It All!.......2005-04-05
I would first like to state that I read both of Rich DiMaggio's books: Credit Repair and the other, Collection Agency Harassment. I have also seen him speak. He is an outstanding speaker and a really intelligent man. When I get done listening to him, I finally feel like I have power over "the system". Truthfully--he would probably speak for your group, too, because he has a true passion about these subjects. He gives advice based on 15 years in the courtroom against the credit industry.
These are 2 distinct books, and should not be lumped into one category. There is overlap because debt collectors use our credit reports against us, but the similarities stop there. Mr. DiMaggio will teach you how to draft exacting letters of disputes, and where to send them. He explains the intricacies of the bankruptcy law, charge-offs, divorce, false identities, FICO scoring an more. I don't have a clue what Chrissy is saying about misleading titles. This book is the best I have seen.
(By the way, if you go to the web site, the author actually responds to emails!)
Why are debt collectors trying to destroy this book?.......2004-06-10
I have to laugh when reading these reviews: This book gets 5 stars from consumers, yet it appears several debt collectors wrote reviews (they probably didn't even read the book) and give it a star or two. Gee, I wonder what is happening?
Not one review by any debt collector actually goes to the substance of the book: That debt collectors have laws they have to follow. When those laws are broken--and this happens frequently--you, the cosumer, can sue the debt collector. There is no reason to be afraid, no reason to screen your phone calls. We, as consumers, have tons of rights against debt collectors, many of them we don't even know. This books tells us what those rights are-nothing more, nothing less.The author does not say all debt collectors are bad. What he says, in plain, easy to read language, is that debt collectors cannot abuse and harass consumers, and he gives us exact cases that explain what the law is. There are only a handful of books out there on this subject. Debt collection is largely a "dark" industry and has never been exposed. And the debt collectors just can't stand the fact that someone finally exposed them and their cheap bag of tricks.
Consumers have rights they don't even know about, and the debt collection industry simply doesn't want us to know what those rights are. Debt collectors use desk names, caller id, talk to our neighbors, threaten to sue us. Much of this is illegal.
Why are debt collectors so afraid of this book?
My prediction: some "consumer" will give it an iffy review. The
reviews right now are 5 star consumer based, 1 star by the debt collectors. Gee, I wonder how much farther the collectors will go.
The word is out about you, debt collectors. I know it makes you burn. You're not all bad, so you say--but why are you so afraid of a book that simply tells the consumers what their rights are?
What are you trying to hide? As members of our wonderful open society, do you not want your fellow citizens to be fully informed on laws? Or do you break those laws so often, exposure could really, really hurt you?
You "cross the line" all the time, and many consumers don't even know when you do. When you cross the line, for example, use vile language, you can get sued. That's right--a consumer can go to the National Consumer Law Center in Boston, find a lawyer that makes a living suing debt collectors, and sue--but isn't this what you do? Don't you make a living suing people--people who have gone through a divorce, gotten ill, lost a job?
Please. It's about time you face your responsibility.

Book Description
Introduction to Bankruptcy Law, fifth edition, is a perfect reference for practicing paralegals and attorneys as well as for paralegal courses in bankruptcy law. This new edition corresponds to the changes in bankruptcy law after enactment of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 (BAPCPA). Material in this edition includes changes in the bankruptcy code and practice, new and revised official and procedural bankruptcy forms, revised bankruptcy rules, and bankruptcy cases that detail the case from initiation of the attorney/client relationship through the closing of the case. The book also includes new flow charts for each type of bankruptcy filing that emphasize the two tracks of bankruptcy; the administration of the bankruptcy estate and the debtor?s desire to receive a discharge from as many debts as possible. Other key features are a brief history of bankruptcy law, research aids, alternatives to bankruptcy, a discussion of the role of the various parties involved in the bankruptcy process, and an overview concerning eligibility and the selection of the appropriate bankruptcy chapter under which the case should be filed. The book retains its step-by-step approach to each type of bankruptcy filing so the bankruptcy process is clear and understandable to the reader. Greater emphasis is placed on the paralegal?s role in the fact gathering process and the interface with clients, and the concept-example-problem format of provides the opportunity for lively discussion.

One of the worst casebooks.......2007-02-22
This is one of the worst casebooks ever written, although it wont stop the sales because most students do not have a choice of textbooks. The book is poorly edited and leaves out crucial pieces of information (such as which statute is relevant). The book is also in an order that is not conducive to learning the material.

Compare before you buy.......2007-04-25
Epstein's book was one of the first to provide a concise intro to bankruptcy law. A number of students have found Bankruptcy And Debtor/creditor: Examples And Explanations (Examples & Explanations) easier to understand with regard to Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. For an introduction to Chapter 11, the book that is getting great reviews is: Chapter 11 Business Reorganizations: For Business Leaders, Accountants And Lawyers.
All three authors know their stuff.
Law Student's Opinion.......2007-01-10
I used this Nutshell to help create my outline and fill in holes towards the end of the semester. I thought the book was well-organized and appreciated its explanation of confusing code sections. I wish I had purchased this book earlier in the semester since using it thoughout the class would have been beneficial. Summary: Much like other Nutshells - very helpful!
Better guides are available.......2006-12-31
This is probably the worst of the guides available for bankruptcy law. It seems to have been put together in a hurry, maybe to be the first guide on the market to address the 2005 amendments. I had to look else where after being disappointed with this and prefer the following:
1. Baird's Elements of Bankruptcy (awesome!)
2. Blum's Examples & Explanations
Mad .......2006-03-07
I was tricked into thinking this was the new book that covered the new code! If it isn't the 2005 edition with the blue cover.....then don't put the #$@#$#$ 2005 edition cover on display!!!!!!!!!
Amazon really SUCKS sometimes!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DON'T BUY - OLD EDITION.......2005-10-22
2005 Amendments are not in the burgundy colored BNK law book - they are in the new one. The cover is blue. The burgundy colored one in OLD law. Buy the new blue one (2005) that has the new amendments in it.
