As most experts predicted, 2009 has been a boom year so far for bankruptcy filings, and the number of new cases is approaching pre-2005 levels!

Unemployment rates are way, way up and climbing.   Foreclosures continue to skyrocket, despite government efforts to stem the tide.  Credit limits have been lowered by many lenders, cutting off the ability of some consumers to live on borrowed funds. These signs, and others, indicate the worst is not yet over.

How is your credit union handling your bankruptcy caseload?  Are you able to review each case to determine exactly what your credit union's rights are and how to protect them, or is money leaking out the door because cases are not being handled -- or aren't being handled quickly enough?  Are you complying with all applicable laws, or are delays and errors placing your credit union at risk?

Do you need practical, specific, detailed and clear training regarding what bankruptcy law allows -- and doesn't allow -- you to do? Do you need more than war stories or general principles and PowerPoint slides? Have you had enough of being told "you can't," and are you ready to learn what you can do to protect your rights in bankruptcy?

Find out why hundreds of credit union professionals consider the annual NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conferences to be the gold standard in bankruptcy training, and why many return year after year to update and polish their skills.

Conference Overview

What Is the NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference?
The NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference is an in-depth four or five day (your choice) program designed to provide credit union professionals with the thorough, in-depth, practical information and training they need in order to analyze and fight consumer bankruptcy cases.  The conference is jointly hosted by credit union leagues and associations from more than forty states, by NorthLegal Training and Publications, and by the law firm of Moore, Brewer, Jones, Tyler & North.  >>For more information

Who Teaches the Program
The conference classes are taught primarily by credit union attorney Eric M. North, a nationally-known attorney who has represented the interests of credit unions for more than twenty five years, and who has taught thousands of credit union professionals from around the country how to understand and comply with the laws that govern them.

Occasionally, other speakers are added to the program to address particular subjects or to bring a unique perspective to the topic of bankruptcy.  Watch this site see if guest speakers will participate in the next NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference.

Who Attends the Program?
The conference is designed to provide information that will benefit new bankruptcy collectors, experienced bankruptcy collectors, and those who supervise them.  (To help those who are new to the bankruptcy world prepare, two archived NorthLegal Webinars are made available free to registered participants the week before the program begins!) We are proud to say that, although we have many new participants each year, a substantial number of participants return year after year because they believe they learn valuable new information each time.

When and Where Are Upcoming Conferences Scheduled?
The next NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference will be held in August 2009 at the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.   For more information about the Las Vegas program, click here.

What is the Conference Schedule,
and What is the "Special Session"?

The main conference begins Monday morning and will end at noon on Thursday. However, for those who want to get the absolute most out of the program and who can spare the extra day, a special session is held Thursday afternoon and Friday morning, to give participants an opportunity to work through hypothetical cases and role playing exercises. This special session usually is attended by a smaller group, which provides participants with an opportunity to discuss issues in a more relaxed atmosphere.
