Bankruptcy Seminar – What Judges And Trustees Want You To Know

“How often have you wished you could predict how the judges and government agencies involved in bankruptcy cases might view your filings?” That’s one of the questions asked by the National Business Institute, the sponsor of an educational forum titled—“What Judges and Bankruptcy Trustees Want You To Know.”

I am honored to be speaking at this program along with the Hon. Barry Russell, Bankruptcy Judge in the Central District of California, and a panel of outstanding bankruptcy professionals. According to the National Business Institute, this program will provide bankruptcy lawyers with “the opportunity to learn about bankruptcy from the view of decision makers and professionals who work in the field every day.”

The half-day seminar will take place on Friday, January 28, 2011, from 9:00 am to 12:15 pm at the Crown Plaza Beverly Hills and I’ve linked it here if you have an interest in attending.

We will review “BAPCPA” (the 2005 amendments to the Bankruptcy Code), the “Means Test and Chapter 7 Challenges,” “Chapter 13 Issues” and “General Tips”. It should be interesting, especially in light of a very recent Supreme Court ruling on the “Means Test” in Chapter 13 cases (Ransom v. FIA Card Services, 562 U.S. ___ (2011).

Bankruptcy lawyers hard at work.
