I am an associate at a major law firm, and I have accumulated over $50,000 worth of various student loans. Can I refinance these loans and get a lower monthly payment?

Yes, in certain circumstances student loans can be refinanced and in some cases repayment can even be forgiven.  Many changes to existing laws and regulations surrounding student loans were made in the recent Healthcare Reform Act of 2010.  However, because this area has become so complex and dependent on the exact types of loans that you have, you should call me for personalized advice in this area.
