The foreclosure process is one which is fraught with peril for the unwary yet it offers rewards for attorneys, investors and potential purchasers alike – provided they have a sound knowledge base and understand how to protect themselves. This seminar is intended to educate counsel, lenders, staff, buyers and other interested individuals on the finer points, pitfalls, and procedures of foreclosure, from the underlying documents and theory through the details of advertisement, sale, and transfer. Attorneys will also benefit from a discussion of defenses against foreclosures and the ethical concerns inherent in the fiduciary relationship of a trustee or substitute trustee.
