ABOUT | WHY THIS PLATFORM EXISTS

Student Loan Hardship Navigator was founded in 2026 after first-hand experience navigating a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and the hardship discharge process as a prose litigant in the Middle District of Florida (Tampa Division).

What happens to those borrowers who can't afford an attorney?

Throughout the process, it became clear how many borrowers and even bankruptcy filers are unaware that student loan discharge may be possible under the right circumstances.

This platform was created to bring awareness, clarity, and structure to that path.
