2012 NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference


Registrations are still being accepted for the 2012 NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference, which will be held from August 20-24, 2012, at Harrah's Las Vegas!

Explore this page and its links to find out why so many credit unions, banks, and other consumer lending institutions consider the annual NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference to be the gold standard in bankruptcy training, and why many return year after year to update and polish their skills!


What Is the NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference?
Now in its twelfth year, the NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference is an in-depth four or five day (your choice) program designed to provide lending institutions with the detailed, clear, and practical information and training they need in order to confidently analyze and fight consumer bankruptcy cases.

The Conference is more than war stories and PowerPoint slides; participants will receive specific information about exactly what bankruptcy law does and doesn't allow creditors to do, discuss real-life and hypothetical cases, and receive thorough handout materials complete with sample correspondence and forms.

The conference is jointly hosted by credit union leagues and associations from more than forty-two 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 attorney Eric M. North, who has represented the interests of consumer lending institutions for more than twenty-five years, and who has taught thousands of credit professionals from around the country how to understand and comply with the laws that govern them.

Who Attends the Program?
The conference is designed to provide information that will benefit both new and experienced collectors and those who supervise them. (To help those who are new to the bankruptcy world prepare, two archived introductory 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 is the Next Conference?
The 2012 NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference will be held from August 20 to 24 at Harrahs Hotel and Casino, centrally located on the famous Las Vegas Strip. Harrahs has recently renovated both its sleeping rooms and its meeting space. We're sure you'll be impressed!

What is the Conference Schedule and What is the "Special Session"?
The main conference begins Monday morning and will end at noon on Thursday. 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.
