Practical Bankruptcy Law
Course Description: The Practical Bankruptcy Law course is designed to prepare paralegals for specialized positions with law firms dealing in bankruptcy cases. This course provides the building blocks of bankruptcy law by explaining bankruptcy cases from the perspective of the debtor, the trustee, and the creditor and discusses the special rules and procedures that must be followed in each type of case. This course also explains how cases are commenced, converted, dismissed, and closed. The text that accompanies this course covers all the basic, underlying concepts of bankruptcy law and the procedural rules governing bankruptcy cases. Each topic discussed within the text is developed for effective use by a beginning paralegal, yet the discussions are of sufficient sophistication to keep the attention of an experienced paralegal.
