Details

The Bankruptcy 2019: Views from the Bench program is a unique opportunity for bankruptcy practitioners to hear from 17 sitting and retired bankruptcy judges during a full day of high-quality CLE and networking opportunities. This year’s program will examine a number of current bankruptcy topics, including issues related to sales, dilemmas of the creditors’ committee, a debate on the standard of disinterestedness, and much more.

The conference will also feature a revamped small-group lunchtime breakout session that will dive deeper into the morning’s topics, so attendees can enjoy a more interactive learning environment. We look forward to seeing you there!
