When Matt Coleman starts his bankruptcy legal practice
his wife Lynn comes up with a fantastic marketing plan - convince people that the credit
card companies are manipulating them into a permanent state of financial slavery. Since
their financial distress is a result of these practices there is no shame involved in
filing a bankruptcy to get out of their grip and become a free person. As a result of this
plan business booms and bankruptcy filings climb. Of course several banks that are
involved in predatory credit card practices are severely hurt. One particular bank,
Midsouth Bank, does not take too kindly to Matt and Lynn’s activities, and are quite
disturbed at the serious financial damage that is being caused to their institution and
the bankruptcies they now have to endure. This leads the chief
executive officer to take some very drastic and ruthless measures leading to tragic
consequences affecting Matt and his wife, as well as others. |
