About This Course
Consumer debt collection remains a high-risk practice area, driven by aggressive enforcement and a sophisticated plaintiffs’ bar. Minor missteps under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) can escalate into statutory liability and class litigation, particularly in light of regulatory attention from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
This CLE program offers a streamlined, practitioner-focused examination of the federal compliance landscape governing third-party collectors and collection counsel. The course highlights frequently litigated FDCPA provisions, emerging liability trends, and concrete risk-management techniques. Attorneys will leave with practical guidance to fortify collection practices, limit exposure, and more effectively defend consumer claims.
