Alexandria, Va. — The American Bankruptcy Institute (ABI) and leading plaintiffs’ trial firm Reid Collins & Tsai LLP have joined together to present a three-part webinar series beginning on January 12, 2022, titled, “Litigating Claims by Trustees: Avoiding Pitfalls at Each Stage of the Bankruptcy Process.” This first webinar in the series will focus on recurring issues that arise in post-bankruptcy litigation involving trustees, and how to set up trustees for success in pursuing litigation claims.
