So the hurricane destroyed your house and job?

The new bankruptcy laws
that go into effect in October mean banks will be able to hound you
endlessly for the money. No more walking away from a mortgage you can
no longer pay.

Six
to nine months from now, FEMA will be gone, the church groups will be
gone and creditors will once more be demanding their money,” said
Bradford W. Botes, a bankruptcy lawyer whose firm represented victims
of Hurricane Ivan, which struck Florida a year ago.
