---------------------------------------------
The recession and foreclosure crisis have created a tidal wave of interest in bankruptcy and filings are at a record high. Many clients are unrepresented and bankruptcy clinics are in great demand. There is a critical need for pro bono attorneys to assist Californians at all levels. Additionally, many practitioners are looking to bankruptcy law as a way to either supplement their current practice or actually developing bankruptcy as a new practice emphasis. The practice of bankruptcy law changed dramatically with the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 (BAPCPA). The implications of BAPCPA will take years to develop and settle out. In the meantime the practice is ever changing and can be quite complicated with even the simplest form of bankruptcy, Chapter 7. This program was developed for brand new practitioners and those who are either not familiar with the practice or have not practiced bankruptcy law since the passage of BAPCPA. The program will focus on Chapter 7 bankruptcy, from the day a new client walks into your office to the day you receive notice that they have successfully received a discharge and their case is closed.
