No matter how you are involved in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding, there is a real chance you will wind up litigating some issue. Litigating in bankruptcy court, however, is very different than litigating in any other federal or state court because the customs, rules and players are all different. This
webinar is designed for the litigator who does not generally find herself in front of a bankruptcy judge As with all Financial Poise Webinars, each episode in the series episode is delivered in Plain English, bringing you into engaging, sometimes humorous conversations designed to entertain as they teach. And, as with all Financial Poise Webinars, each episode in the series is designed to be viewed independently of the other episodes, so that participants will enhance their knowledge of this area
whether they attend one, some, or all of the episodes.
Episode #2
Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code creates certain causes of action that arise only upon the filing of a bankruptcy case. Specifically, these provisions enable the debtor or trustee to take actions to bring assets back into the debtor’s estate. Most commonly, these come in the form of preference lawsuits. This webinar discusses the standards for bringing these causes of action and then dives into how to defend against them. The panelists also provide practical tips on how creditors can try to protect and insulate themselves from these attacks ahead of time, by taking certain precautions when dealing with
distressed business prior to the filing of a bankruptcy case.
This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you are not a specialist. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.
