What Bankruptcy Lawyers Need to Know About Other Areas of the Law

Bankruptcy practitioners often face issues and questions involving other practice areas. To effectively represent clients, Bankruptcy lawyers need a working knowledge of these other practice areas to understand how they will impact the outcome of their bankruptcy cases.

For this seminar we have assemble a group of practitioners who are experts in their fields to provide the bankruptcy practitioner with the knowledge they will need to spot the issues raised by these other practice areas. The seminar will first examine non bankruptcy practice areas of most concern to attorneys who primarily represent individual consumer debtors in chapter 7 cases and will then explore those issues most likely to be encountered by attorneys who primarily represent businesses reorganizing under chapter 11.
