Chicago Consumer Bankruptcy Conference

The Gleacher Center @ The University of Chicago Booth School of Business

Chicago, Illinois

October 11, 2010

ABI's outstanding consumer bankruptcy program returns this fall to the Chicago area. This day-long educational conference is entirely devoted to the consumer bankruptcy professional and will focus on current issues affecting debtors and creditors in consumer cases. Faculty members include Bankruptcy Judges Sonderby and Wedoff from the Northern District of Illinois and Prof. Ralph Brubaker from the University of Illinois College of Law, as well as experienced local chapter 7 and 13 consumer attorneys, panel trustees and an attorney from the Chicago Office of the U.S. Trustee.
In addition, all attendees will receive a copy of Reaffirmation Agreements in Consumer Bankruptcy Cases, Second Edition!

The first edition of Reaffirmation Agreements in Consumer Bankruptcy Cases addressed what to expect under BAPCPA when consumer debtors want to reaffirm their debts. The financial crisis has since significantly altered the landscape for reaffirmation, prompting renewed scrutiny by debtors, creditors and bankruptcy courts. Reaffirmation Agreements in Consumer Bankruptcy Cases, 2nd Edition, written by Don Lassman and Dan Austin, provides an expanded update of reaffirmation essentials, including the necessity, timing and content of reaffirmation agreements. In addition, the authors address cutting-edge issues such as loan modification, post-discharge litigation and increased involvement by bankruptcy courts. The handbook details the relevant Code sections dealing with reaffirmation and includes reaffirmation statistics, a sample letter for creditors and a state-by-state comparison of enforcement of ipso facto provisions. Reaffirmation Agreements in Consumer Bankruptcy Cases, 2nd Edition includes the December 2009 changes to the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and provides guidance for both debtor, creditor and practitioner.

Approval for approximately 5.5 hours, including 1.25 hours of ethics of continuing legal education credit, is pending.
