Consumer I: Debt Collection



Sponsored by: Legal Services of New Jersey
Date and time: Tuesday, 3/16/2010, 9:45 AM to 4:00 PM
Registration deadline: Tuesday, 2/16/2010
Description: The six-part Consumer Law Training is part of LSNJ’s basic substantive law training which is designed for inexperienced attorneys. The Consumer Law Series is designed for new advocates who need an introduction to basic concepts of consumer practice, but more experienced advocates who are switching their specialty or consumer law advocates who would like a refresher will also find this series helpful. New consumer advocates are strongly urged to attend the entire series, as each session builds on and intersects with topics introduced in earlier sessions. We also believe that those advocates advising or representing clients on foreclosure matters will benefit from the entire series. Limited printed materials will be distributed at the training.
Who can attend: This training is open to attorneys who agree to take at least one pro bono case from a Legal Services program in the year following the training.
Cost: The fee is $15 per person to cover food, beverages and other costs in preparing the training. The fee must be paid by check in advance of the training. Cash payments will not be accepted. Please note the title and date of the training on the check. Checks should be made payable to “LSNJ” and mailed along with your registration form (a copy of which you will receive by email after you register for the training) to:
