John Halpern Chaired All-Day Seminar on Collection Litigation

On September 30 John Halpern chaired a program featuring 13 faculty members providing insight into litigation against debtors in behalf of business creditors that are unsecured, secured, or victims of fraud.  The all-day seminar at the Continuing Legal Education Center in Minneapolis was sponsored by the Minnesota State Bar Association.

John spoke on the following topics: (A) Collections and Litigation Strategies and (B) Post-Judgment Pressure on Debtors.  His two comprehensive appendices were entitled Initial Collection Correspondence and Pleadings and Standard Post-Judgment Discover Pleadings and Legal Process Forms.  These documents were disseminated to seminar attendees, and John answered questions regarding effective litigation strategies and collection pleadings that attorneys use to sequester, garnish, and levy upon debtors’ assets.
