Bankruptcy Peer Forum
NCBA created a Bankruptcy Peer Forum to provide creditors rights attorneys and creditors an opportunity to meet informally for peer-to-peer conversations and feedback.
Discussions focus on current developments and best practices for representing creditors in consumer and commercial bankruptcy cases and the impact of bankruptcy filings on debt collection litigation.
Topics include substantive and procedural aspects of bankruptcy practice and the intersection of bankruptcy law and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) in the context of debt collection which is crucial for understanding the rights and responsibilities of creditors, debt collectors, and consumers.
