Spotting FCRA Violations in Post-Discharge Bankruptcy

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.
