May 4, 2007
Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House

Now in its ninth year, ABI’s New York City Bankruptcy Conference remains the most popular insolvency workshop in America’s Financial Center. Bringing together a faculty of bankruptcy judges and practitioners from the top national insolvency firms, this day-long educational forum is designed to appeal to both experienced and new professionals. The workshop format allows for spirited exchange between panelist and attendee, and the flexible repeating format allows you to customize your personal learning experience.

Offered again is the primer course “Bankruptcy Fundamentals: Nuts & Bolts for Young Practitioners,” held on the Friday before the conference. Updated to include recent changes under BAPCPA, an outstanding faculty of judges, academics and attorneys will explain the fundamentals of bankruptcy.
