Greater numbers of attorneys are now finding the need to learn or to re-learn how to service bankruptcy law clients while not violating new regulations on lawyering. This practice-oriented program covers substantive issues such as property of the estate, discharge and dischargeability of debts, the automatic stay, executory contracts and leases, and voidable transfers of property, that most commonly arise in bankruptcy cases. Also discussed are Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, the means test, and consumer oriented “hot” issues that are now facing practitioners.
