    This claim-spotting webinar will provide a general overview of post-bankruptcy FCRA claims. If you have limited knowledge of bankruptcies and want to expand your FCRA practice to include post-bankruptcy cases, this webinar is for you.

    One of the primary purposes of bankruptcy is to give an honest individual debtor who finds themselves in financial hardship a “fresh start.” Often, however, consumers who have dutifully completed the bankruptcy process and received a discharge nevertheless find themselves still handcuffed to their old debts, due to the credit bureaus reporting inaccurate information about pre-petition debts. Such inaccurate reporting makes it appear as though the consumer is still legally liable for the debt(s), preventing those consumers from receiving the full benefit of the “fresh start” they are entitled to.

    This claim-spotting webinar will provide a general overview of post-bankruptcy FCRA claims. If you have limited knowledge of bankruptcies and want to expand your FCRA practice to include post-bankruptcy cases, this webinar is for you. Following the webinar there will be an extended question and answer session and discussion.

    This webinar will be an introductory webinar in handling homeowner insurance claims. This webinar is geared to those considering adding this practice area to their consumer law firm.

    With the dawn of the era of climate change, the increase of extreme weather events nationwide has led to a corresponding spike in the number of homeowners and commercial insurance claims resulting from these storm events and subsequently litigation arising from disputes over those claims.  This creates a highly specialized area of the law which incorporates principles of contract and insurance law.  Moreover, the laws in this area vary from state to state.  

    Insurance policies are contracts drafted by for profit companies whose business model is very simple.  They make money by charging and collecting premiums and lose money by paying claims.  Those policies are designed to pay as little as possible on each claim and present as many hurdles as possible for the policyholder to clear prior to getting paid.  Understanding insurance policies and how to read them is the first and foremost roadblock to navigating in this process.  

    This webinar will be an introductory webinar in handling homeowner insurance claims. This webinar is geared to those considering adding this practice area to their consumer law firm.
