have included bankruptcy judges, Chapter 13 Trustees, and an Assistant U.S. Attorney.

2. What materials are provided? Do you have additional
materials that I can buy for an extra fee?
Absolutely all written materials are provided as part of the program price; there is nothing extra you must (or even can) buy. Program materials include detailed information concerning the types of bankruptcy, what the automatic stay is and how to obtain relief from it, what you should look for when analyzing chapter 7 and chapter 13 bankruptcies and the circumstances that allow you to fight each, and much more. Also included are sample letters and detailed worksheets to use when dealing with bankruptcy cases when you return to your credit union.

3. May I just buy the written materials without attending the Conference?
We're sorry, but no. Although the program materials are comprehensive, they are not
intended to be used independently from the Conference.

4. I've attended the one-day programs Eric North has conducted for my credit union league in the past. Will this program really be much different?
The basic content of the NorthLegal Bankruptcy Conference is similar to, but
much more detailed than, that presented in the single-day programs. Those who
have attended both single-day and multi-day conferences by Eric and who have
offered comments, have universally commented that they gained greater understanding
by having the additional time for training. Of course, the ability to interact
with other participants from around the country added to the experience for those
who have been able to attend.

Bankruptcy Post-Program Workshop Questions
1. May I attend the Post-Program Workshop on Thursday afternoon and Friday morning without attending the main program earlier that week?
We're sorry, but no. The workshop is meant to build on information presented
during the primary program, and training will proceed under the assumption
the participants are familiar with information presented during the primary
program. If those who did not attend from Monday through Thursday were to join
us for the workshop, training would be delayed as materials presented earlier
in the week would be presented again.

2. I really can't afford the time to attend the Post-Program Workshop. Is it still worthwhile for me to attend the main program from Monday through Thursday?
Absolutely! During the main program, the subject of bankruptcy will be covered
as thoroughly as possible during that time. Even those who cannot attend the "extra day" will
leave with a wealth of information about how bankruptcy works and solid direction
concerning how to analyze and fight bankruptcy cases. The special workshop
simply offers participants who can spare the additional day the opportunity
to participate in hands-on analysis and handling of real-world cases, to further
develop their skills and lock in their understanding.
