Yesterday’s financial meltdown on Wall Street and the unprecedented bankruptcy filing of Lehman Brothers has had a ripple effect in the Continuing Legal Education arena. With the market closing down 500 points, attorneys around the country have made Bankruptcy courses their #1 priority.

 

Here at Lawline.com, we started seeing a record number of Bankruptcy courses being taken early Monday morning and continuing at an increasing pace since that time.

David Schnurman, our president, commented that, “In the 10 years that we have been providing Online CLE, I cannot recall another time when the events of the real world crossed over into the courses attorneys chose to complete their mandatory requirements.”  This is an interesting trend, one that we will continue to follow as the market continues into dangerous territory.

To look for a new a strategy in combating a problem, studying it is a must.Bankruptcy is never a pleasant thing to contemplate. If you think you might have to file for bankruptcy protection, there are two options. Chapter 7 is where you have little or no property and you have an unmanageable amount of debt, credit card or otherwise and no quick payday loan can help. Chapter 11 is for paying off a percentage of the debt, if you are facing foreclosure or repossession. Chapter 13 filing gives you 3 to 5 years to pay off a portion of your debts. Bankruptcy stays on your credit report for up to ten years, depending on what type, and not disclosing it is a crime. However, bankruptcy is among the debt relief options you have, as odious as it is.
