Jorge will present sections on the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), on Prefiling Strategies, and on Ethical Pitfalls in Collections. As an aside, Jorge and I are both perplexed as to why there is a section discussing the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, given that the seminar addresses commercial collections and that the FDCPA applies only to consumer debt- a testament to the extent to which the FDCPA is misunderstood. Nevertheless, this seminar should be of interest to commercial litigators, collection agencies, and creditors.
