Understand the recent changes to the Bankruptcy Code that impact preference actions.
Gain an understanding of the best bankruptcy preference that correlates with specific client needs and learn about the changes to due diligence requirements for preference actions mandated by Subchapter V of the Bankruptcy Code. Preference law is controversial because it is designed to punish creditors which are paid in advance of a bankruptcy filing by that creditor's debtor. This topic will explain strategies for creditors to proactively avoid a preference challenge, outline defenses, many of which are oftentimes overlooked, and educate debtors as to when preference recoveries can work to their benefit.
