that's the best thing, is tell them i can'thelp or you shouldn't file because this is what might happen. we get quite a few referrals from tax attorneys,cpas, and even tax preparers because they know that in some circumstances bankruptcymay discharge income taxes that you owe. if you owe a lot of money in taxes, talk to yourcpa, your tax attorney and talk to a bankruptcy lawyer because you may be very surprised tofind out that that burdensome tax debt could just go away in a bankruptcy case. a lot oftimes, it does. we take all referrals very seriously. ah,we want somebody to feel confident that we're going to handle the case as if it was oneof my relatives that i was handling it, and
