Union of India that the right to privacy is constitutionally protected in India. The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, also known as the DPDP Act, establishes the statutory framework in India for regulating digital personal data, together with its implementing rules. The framework also aligns with the digital transformation agenda of India and the Viksit Bharat 2047 vision.The DPDP Act and implementing rules are moving the data protection framework in India from enactment to implementation. Key requirements will come into effect in stages, including consent manager requirements and broader operational compliance obligations. The DPDP Act is relevant to companies with operations, relationships, or workflows involving the processing of digital personal data in India. It may also apply to processing of digital personal data outside India if the processing is connected to an activity related to offering goods or services to individuals in India.

It is critical to know how and when directors, officers, legal advisors, and outside auditors might be considered “gatekeepers” and the implications for failing to prevent or address misconduct.  Attendees of this popular yearly program are invited to engage with the faculty in spirited discussions of current enforcement actions, civil litigation, and the complex roles and expectations of corporate gatekeepers.  We will also compare areas of deregulation against areas of increased oversight by the current administration, and what they mean for potential gatekeeper liability.   Attendees will gain practical tools and valuable insight from experienced in-house and outside counsel, compliance officers, and former government regulators, while networking with colleagues and leaders in this unique field of legal practice.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 443654 443654 13 G3215 2026-07-15T21:00:00Z 8:02:40 New York NY USA https://www.pli.edu/programs/franchising-the-basics--key-legal-and-regulatory-considerations/467124?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Corporate law Corporate contracts License agreements (Corporate contracts) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Intellectual property) Intellectual property licensing This program provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental legal and regulatory framework governing franchising in the United States.

The technology continues to evolve and new tools are rapidly being developed and deployed. These new tools present enormous opportunities to be more efficient, improve work product quality, and produce better outcomes in law practice and at the same time create new risks that lawyers need to understand and manage well. Lawyers must have a foundational understanding of AI to fulfill their ethical obligations and capture opportunities to innovate successfully with AI. This program provides that foundation, addressing at a functional level how large language models, generative AI, agentic AI and other AI tools work, as well as recent developments in this space. The expert faculty will then explore the roles and impacts that AI tools can have on legal workflows, various AI use cases, considerations for building AI tools, evaluating AI performance, benefits, and risks, and the ethical, legal, and compliance considerations you need to be aware of as AI continues to reshape the practice of law.

Yet the manner in which concepts are expressed on a page is often as important as the concepts themselves. Solid contract-drafting skills are therefore essential tools to any professional who deals with transactions or business relationships. Unfortunately, although contract counterparties might have the best of intentions, many contracts—even those drafted by experienced attorneys and those relating to the most prominent of transactions—are plagued with ambiguities, inconsistencies, unintended imprecision, and “bloat” from rhetorical emphasis, rendering them confusing, risky, and potentially very costly. This course is designed to convey fundamental—but often unconsidered—principles to assist both newly admitted and seasoned attorneys with drafting, analyzing, and interpreting contracts. Unlike many other contract-drafting courses, this course focuses on the manner in which concepts are expressed in a contract, rather than the substance of any provision or contract in particular.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 441844 441844 13 G3706 2026-07-17T16:20:00Z 3:21:06 New York NY USA https://www.pli.edu/programs/cybersecurity-best-practices-for-legal-services-providers/444301?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Cybersecurity and data protection Information privacy (Cybersecurity and data protection) Intellectual property Technology in law practice Technology In a world of advanced and persistent attacks, cybersecurity has become a top concern. Lawyers and law firms protect confidential client data, personal information about employees, and even market-moving information about transactions under development.

An understanding of the U.S. international tax rules, especially in the current environment, is of paramount importance to a wide variety of tax and corporate professionals.This year’s program will be led by international tax experts and focuses on specific types of outbound and inbound investment and activities, and their U.S. tax consequences. Each panel will focus upon the issues raised by inbound and outbound investments and describe how the U.S. tax rules address these issues. Special attention will be given to the ways the U.S. tax rules impact financings, mergers, acquisitions, and other commercial activities.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 441283 441283 13 G3155 2026-07-22T21:00:00Z 8:10:40 New York NY USA https://www.pli.edu/programs/the-lawyers-voice-presence-and-language-in-legal-practice/467306?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Litigation Professional development Career development Many of the most consequential moments in legal practice happen through the lawyer’s voice in real time. A judge, jury, witness, colleague, or client is not only processing the words, but assessing the lawyer as an advocate: their clarity, steadiness, responsiveness, competence, and credibility in the moment. As AI assists with more drafting, research, and first-pass analysis, these live human capacities are becoming more visible, not less. Yet much communication training for lawyers works only at the surface level: artificial vocal variation, gesture coaching, forced pauses, and projected confidence, while leaving the deeper physical and rhetorical capacities of legal speech undertrained. As a result, lawyers often enter the moments that matter with the analytic side of their training ready to go, while the embodied, human side — breath, voice, presence, movement, listening, and connection — receives far less rigorous attention. This disconnect can keep strong legal analysis from landing fully with factfinders, clients, and colleagues. Drawing on classical rhetoric, linguistics, conservatory-level voice and speech training, and applied performance practice, this session reveals voice, presence, and language as necessary legal skills with their own architecture, training methods, and signs of measurable progress. Participants will come away with actionable oral advocacy tools that help legal meaning land in the room with clarity, credibility, and gravitas, rather than remaining trapped in analysis.

Yet the intellectual property (IP) that underlies innovation is also among a company's most vulnerable assets, exposed to risks that can undermine years of investment and, in some cases, threaten the business itself. Despite the stakes, many companies lack the governance structures needed to systematically identify, protect, and leverage their IP portfolios. This program offers a practical framework for building effective innovation governance, guiding attendees through the key strategies that protect IP assets and strengthen overall business resilience.

Section 1782 has become an indispensable tool for parties litigating outside the United States. With applications surging roughly 300% over the past decade, Section 1782 is now a cornerstone of cross-border litigation strategy. The statute affords foreign litigants the ability to obtain discovery from individuals and entities located in the United States—including major financial institutions and wire clearing houses—for use in a foreign proceeding, achieving a breadth and speed of discovery that is often unavailable in other jurisdictions. This presentation is a practitioner-focused guide to obtaining U.S. discovery in aid of a foreign proceeding under Section 1782. We walk through the full lifecycle of a Section 1782 proceeding—from filing an ex parte application and serving subpoenas, to litigating challenges, obtaining and using the resulting discovery, and navigating appeals. Grounded in recent case law, the program offers practical, battle-tested guidance on the process, the obstacles that may arise, and how to overcome them.

Yet the manner in which concepts are expressed on a page is often as important as the concepts themselves. Solid contract-drafting skills are therefore essential tools to any professional who deals with transactions or business relationships. Unfortunately, although contract counterparties might have the best of intentions, many contracts—even those drafted by experienced attorneys and those relating to the most prominent of transactions—are plagued with ambiguities, inconsistencies, unintended imprecision, and “bloat” from unnecessary legalese, rendering them confusing, risky, and potentially very costly.Select Concepts in Drafting Contracts: Analyzing Ambiguities and Contract Boilerplate builds upon PLI’s immensely popular Fundamental Concepts in Drafting Contracts.

When that involvement is overlayed with juvenile delinquency petitions and questions about competency, moving forward with case processing while supporting a youth can be even more daunting. The purpose of this training is to educate legal professionals on the statutory scheme that guides competency issues in New York State and inform legal and other cross-system partners on responses to competency orders and services that best support youth with behavioral health needs who become justice-involved.

Federal regulatory support has retreated, anti-ESG legislation has proliferated at the state level, fiduciary framing has shifted, and the terminology itself has become politically charged. Yet investor demand for climate-conscious, sustainability-oriented, faith-based, values-based, transition, and other thematic strategies persists — as does the legal and compliance complexity confronting asset managers on both sides of the debate. Claims about ESG, sustainability, climate risk, transition investing, or values-based mandates may attract regulatory, litigation, political, reputational, or investor scrutiny. At the same time, retreating from prior commitments, changing terminology, or narrowing disclosures can itself create risk if communications are inconsistent with investment processes, stewardship practices, or investor expectations.This program cuts through the noise. It is designed for legal and compliance professionals advising investment advisers, registered funds, private funds, institutional managers, and plan fiduciaries. It focuses on where things actually stand — what funds are being offered, what is required, what is permitted, what is risky, and how to counsel clients operating in a fragmented, high-scrutiny environment.We will begin with a review of the current fund landscape, including the types of sustainability-related and climate-focused strategies that managers are offering and how those products are being described, marketed, and monitored. It will then turn to foundational legal issues, including fiduciary duties, materiality, disclosure, and defensibility. The final panel will focus on state and governmental plans, where fiduciary obligations, political scrutiny, state-law constraints, investment policy requirements, and public accountability create special challenges.

Practitioners and industry participants are left to guess at what the new regulatory landscape means in terms of practical compliance considerations, and our program is designed to shed light on this important topic.The volume of private litigation, particularly focused on deposit account issues, credit reporting, debt collection, and data privacy and security also remains high, with evolving changes based on recent jurisprudence, including from the Supreme Court.This popular 1.5-day event brings together faculty representing a wide range of perspectives ranging from federal and state regulatory and enforcement agency representatives to experienced plaintiffs', defense, in house counsel and consumer advocates who will bring you up to speed on what they are focusing on now and the areas in which the risk of private litigation, including mass arbitrations, and class actions, remains high. They will focus on how the complex network of federal and state laws applies to the broad range of consumer financial services, including credit products, deposit accounts, payments, and consumer reporting and consumer data.  Join us and our esteemed faculty for an insightful review of the most current financial services issues.This event is the second of three complementary events PLI is offering in 2026, all of which are suitable for attendees at all levels.

Many parents fear their children will be left behind and unable to compete without a proper education. While disparities in education have always existed, they have only been magnified in recent years and the pandemic has severely set back those students who can least afford it, students with disabilities. High quality legal representation is absolutely essential when school districts either fail to properly identify a student in need of specialized instruction or when school districts identify such students but simply don't provide the services that they need. Students must be able to obtain the specialized instruction and related services that they need and are entitled to pursuant to federal and local law. However, without an advocate, this is often impossible to achieve.

These lifelines are often their only means to secure food, shelter, and basic necessities. Legal aid organizations are stretched thin, unable to keep pace with soaring demand for representation and support in benefits cases. Many individuals have been unlawfully denied access to these critical benefits. The first step to challenging incorrect benefits decisions is an administrative hearing. If the client loses the administrative hearing, they have a right to seek judicial review of the decision by filing a writ of administrative mandate in Superior Court, or, in the case of Social Security and SSI denials, by filing an appeal in federal district court.The writ of administrative mandate and federal court judicial review processes are complex, and pro bono legal representation is essential to helping clients get and maintain public benefits and to protect their rights.In addition to writs that appeal administrative decisions, California law also allows for “ordinary” writs of mandate that can be used to enforce mandatory duties, to challenge state or local agency policies that improperly deny benefits, and to challenge agency quasi-legislative decisions. Writ practice is also a valuable tool for litigating a wide variety of other issues that affect low-income clients.Join our panel to discuss writs of administrative mandate under Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.5, writs of ordinary mandate under Code of Civil Procedure section 1085, and federal court judicial review of Social Security decisions. This program is designed to help mitigate the crisis faced by low-income families everywhere by providing attorneys with a basic understanding of common issues and strategies in providing pro bono assistance with writs and judicial review.The program will focus on California law but several concepts about judicial review will apply to other states. We will also discuss judicial review in federal court for Social Security decisions, which is the same nationwide.

Yet the legal and regulatory frameworks surrounding AI remain fragmented, and AI technologies are fast-moving, evolving at a pace that is hard to track or manage. Meanwhile, regulators globally are sharpening their focus on AI, while corporate boards are being pressed by investors, regulators, and the public to demonstrate meaningful AI value and oversight.This program is designed for in-house counsel, chief compliance officers, outside lawyers, privacy and data protection professionals, board advisors, and risk management leaders who are responsible for—or are advising clients on—the governance of AI systems. It is equally relevant for those building governance frameworks from the ground up and those seeking to stress-test and mature existing frameworks. Whether your organization is deploying its first AI tools or managing a complex portfolio of AI-enabled products and third-party integrations, this program will equip you with the practical frameworks and forward-looking strategies you need to govern AI effectively and defensibly.

State legislatures and Washington, D.C. are caught in a wave of rapid legislative change. From Minnesota’s 2023 total ban to Washington’s evolving tightening of restrictions to Florida’s recent extreme pro-enforcement posture, the rules of the road are changing at every state line. And, while the federal government previously attempted multiple broad-based forays into this historically state law issue, those efforts have largely stalled and federal involvement will, for the foreseeable future, continue with aggressive individual lawsuits.Imagine that one of your client’s key employees just left for a competitor in violation of a noncompete. Or your client is that competitor and has received a cease and desist letter demanding that it fire the employee. Or your client is that employee. Or maybe it’s not just one key employee, but a group of five, ten, or 100 or more employees in a mass lift-out. What do you do?Noncompete agreements and similar restrictive covenants are critical tools for protecting trade secrets, customer relationships, and other recognized legitimate business interests. But the legal landscape varies dramatically from state to state, ranging from bans in California, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Oklahoma to strong, pro-enforcement policies in Florida. And, while public sentiment, evolving state legislation, potential federal initiatives, and trends in judicial review and enforcement are increasingly restricting the use of these agreements, the risks posed by employees who are not subject to restrictive covenants continue to grow.How can your clients stay ahead of evolving restrictions and continue to protect themselves? How will you advise them? Don’t miss your chance to attend this unique full-day program, where leading restrictive covenant law experts will provide a deep dive into the latest legal developments and offer practical strategies for how to navigate the changing laws, judicial attitudes, and regulatory actions effectively.Understanding the changing landscape and its complications and implications is nothing short of critical – particularly for companies engaged in business across state lines.This program brings together top experts and thought leaders from around the country to explore the most pressing and complex issues from the perspectives of employees, former employers, and new employers. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain the insights and strategies you need to navigate this evolving legal landscape.

According to the filing, the incident did not disrupt operations but was deemed to be a material event due to the volume and sensitive nature of the non-public customer information that was disclosed which included customer names, social security numbers, and dates of birth. While Shadow AI risks have been known for years, organizations continue to grapple with it.

Trade secrets law can protect cutting edge technologies, improvements to mature technologies, new combinations of well-known information and a host of valuable technical and strategic information in between. But misappropriation and claims of misappropriation can derail an organization’s business strategies—on both sides of the “v.” They can even lead to criminal exposure and liability for acts in the U.S. and abroad. Judgments on the scores of millions of dollars and even more are becoming increasingly common. So are appeals, reversals, and retrials. Obtaining value from trade secrets requires sharing them—always with employees, increasingly with customers or suppliers or collaborators who may become potential competitors, sometimes with service providers, including AI platforms, and often across borders. New technologies including generative and agentic AI can create or optimize trade secrets or destroy their value. The creators of AI platforms and datasets have their own trade secrets to protect. New techniques for managing and obtaining value from trade secrets are being developed globally. To maximize value and reduce risk, organizations must stay on top of the latest developments. This full day program brings together experts and thought leaders in the field to help you do just that.

Attendees will examine how organizations are implementing responsible AI governance programs through transparency, explainability, human oversight, algorithmic accountability, impact assessments, and enterprise risk management frameworks.The program will also address emerging operational threats, including AI-enabled cyberattacks, deep fakes, sophisticated ransomware campaigns, and the increasing risks associated with autonomous AI systems and AI Agents.Now in its eleventh year, this premier program brings together leading practitioners, academics, technologists, and industry professionals responsible for shaping enterprise AI governance and global privacy strategy. Designed for professionals navigating the complex intersection of AI innovation and legal compliance, the program delivers practical guidance, strategic insights, and actionable recommendations for implementing responsible AI at scale.

Understanding the role psychological issues play in the genesis, prosecution and defense of employment law claims is critical for employee rights and defense attorneys alike.This program will address in a clear and pragmatic way key employment law issues at the intersection of law and psychology. Harassment, discrimination and retaliation claims, among others, are profoundly impacted by the range of emotions that motivate employees and employers. So, too, are frequent claims involving disabilities and failure to accommodate. This program brings together a representative from the New York City Commission on Human Rights, prominent practitioners from the employee rights and management bars, psychologists, and a former federal magistrate judge to address the creation and litigation of today’s employment law claims. They will identify key legal issues and ways in which psychological factors influence the employees, managers and employers engaged in conflict. Speakers will transcend jargon, identify practical ways of working together, and describe effective strategies to avoid, pursue and resolve litigation.Additionally, this program will focus on the current status of DEI and elimination of bias programs in the legal profession, including the challenges facing attorneys who are neurodivergent or who have a mental disability and the reasonable accommodations and other resources that may be available to them.Employment lawyers often work with mental health professionals, sometimes aligned and at other times adverse. Our legal and psychiatric experts will also consider the ethical and professional responsibilities of attorneys and mental health professionals (forensic and treating) when they are involved in employment litigation. Our panelists will discuss ethical tips and traps when employment lawyers and mental health professionals engage in discovery of psychiatric records, mental examinations, and depositions and trial testimony from expert and treating therapists.

Oftentimes, we think being a good lawyer is enough to make someone a good supervisor, but the skill necessary to be an excellent supervisor or people manager can be very different than the ones that allow us to excel in a courtroom. When we find excellent supervisors, it is important to provide the support and systems they need to thrive, especially as we work hard to diversify our staff. Supervision is a two-way relationship, and it can be complicated by the identities involved. This program will provide the basics of excellent supervision and provide systems and strategies to make sure supervision is equitable and effective for both people in the supervision relationship.

The widespread use of AI for drafting pleadings, however, has led to over 1300 reported cases of documents containing citations to non-existent cases being filed with courts. In a recently reported case, an attorney used AI to generate discovery objections which he then cut and pasted into a communication that he sent to opposing counsel and the court. Earlier this year, a federal court entered a protective order with a detailed protocol for the use of AI and LLMs in discovery in the case. These developments signal that lawyers, law firms, and law departments need to have appropriate policies, procedures, and governance in place to avoid ethical violations in discovery and compliance with AI-focused protective orders.

If you get accredited by the VA before you attend this training, the last three hours will satisfy the VA’s CLE requirement.1. Attorneys and other advocates must be accredited to practice before the VA. To obtain attorney accreditation you must complete this form: www.va.gov/vaforms/va/pdf/VA21a.pdf.2. Accreditation by the VA may take several weeks, so do not delay filing your application. You can speed up the process by emailing the form to OGCAccreditationMailbox@va.gov.3. Within 12 months after accreditation you are required to complete three hours of qualifying CLE. The afternoon session of this program satisfies that requirement, but only if you have already received your accreditation from the VA. If you have not received it, you should still watch this program, but keep in mind that you will need to complete three additional hours of CLE within 12 months after receiving your accreditation.4. Attorneys and other advocates who become accredited will be listed on a national VA list, and are entitled to represent veterans in their initial claims for VA benefits on a pro bono basis, and on VA benefits appeals for attorney’s fees.There are approximately 18 million veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. Many of them are not aware of the benefits to which they are entitled. Medical, housing, and financial assistance are available to those who have served in the military, but many veterans most in need are not receiving assistance from the VA. Navigating the VA’s claims system and the Department of Defense’s discharge upgrade process is often difficult and complex. Attorneys with veterans law expertise play an essential role by:Representing veterans in the discharge upgrade process, and thus removing that barrier to benefits, employment, and social services.Developing evidence to “service-connect” their injuries or disabilities.Using current medical or mental health evidence to document the severity of symptoms for accurate disability ratings.Advocating for VA eligibility determinations for those given less-than-fully honorable discharges for minor disciplinary infractions consequent to Post-Traumatic Stress or Traumatic Brain Injury symptoms.

The CLO-CFO relationship is particularly critical because Legal and Finance sit at the intersection of strategy, risk, governance, financial discipline, operational execution, stakeholder confidence, and enterprise value creation. In this dynamic one-hour panel discussion, expert faculty will discuss how strong CLO-CFO relationships can move beyond functional silos and contribute to better business outcomes.Whether you are early in your legal career, an in-house counsel working with Finance and other business leaders, or an aspiring General Counsel, this discussion will help you understand why this relationship matters and how to develop the capabilities needed to contribute effectively to successful C-suite relationships.

Recently there have been significant changes in the immigration law landscape, as the U.S. Supreme Court has issued several decisions that impact the adjudication of petitions for review of immigration decisions. The federal courts of appeals also publish numerous precedential decisions addressing immigration law each year. It is more important than ever for advocates to have a clear understanding of the petition for review process. Understanding the review standards and procedures that govern Circuit Court practice is crucial to creating a good record before an Immigration Judge and preserving arguments on direct appeal to the BIA. It is also necessary for the successful resolution of noncitizens’ cases once they reach the Circuit Court level. This training will cover strategies for analyzing BIA decisions and delve into jurisdictional issues, scope and standards of review, oral argument skills, and other skills necessary for representing petitioners before the federal courts of appeals. There is no “prerequisite” for this training, though it will build upon last year’s “Developing an Immigration Appeal–Strategies and Tactics for Success,” which remains available on-demand.

Courts do not always agree, health care professionals often fail to provide actionable information, non-traditional religious practices may be confusing to managers and HR professionals, and regulations present compliance pitfalls. Moreover, compliance and process requirements can be difficult to reconcile with the goals of meeting business needs and providing a positive employee experience. This program is for legal and HR professionals who want to understand and manage the complex interplay between the applicable laws and practical considerations. Legal practitioners, third-party leave management providers, and in-house counsel will share legal updates and process options and provide insights into enforcement and industry trends using hypothetical but realistic scenarios. The program’s goal will be to provide a legal framework that helps drive pragmatic and effective solutions for all those who navigate leaves and accommodations on a routine basis.

The SEC’s current leadership have implemented a more deregulatory posture, with reduced rulemaking activity and the rescission of certain Biden-era guidance. At the same time, the fundamentals of adviser regulation remain firmly in place—advisers must still satisfy their fiduciary duty, maintain robust compliance programs, and respond effectively to SEC examinations and enforcement inquiries. Understanding what has changed, and what has not, is essential for practitioners advising in this environment. At the same time, the business landscape is dynamic with the emergence of digital advice, “break-away” broker dealers and continued innovation regarding advisory programs, including model-based programs.  At this program, attendees will get a solid foundation in the regulatory regime applying to investment advisers. Attendees will learn how the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and state securities laws interact in governing the advisory industry. In addition to providing a solid foundation, the program will provide extensive discussion and analysis regarding “hot topics” facing advisers today.  A distinguished faculty will offer insights into recent developments, including the SEC’s adviser exam program and recent enforcement cases.

This Workshop is intended to replace that ad-hoc learning process by helping participants develop an in-depth understanding of the reporting requirements of the U.S. federal securities laws. Workshop participants will build the foundational knowledge and practical experience necessary to understand, prepare and review periodic and current reports and proxy statements to comply with the SEC’s extensive disclosure requirements. Participants will also learn important rules and techniques for communicating with the public, including during public offerings of securities as well as what triggers the “duty to disclose,” the importance of “insider trading” policies, and the art of drafting disclosure documents and press releases with a view toward limiting potential liability.

Meanwhile, adults aged 55 and up now hold 74% of all wealth in the U.S. They are prime targets for financial exploitation, a fact exacerbated by international criminal organizations perpetrating scams across the world. And abusers can include family, caregivers, and friends, too. When financial abuse strikes, it causes economic instability and psychological decline. It also impairs older adults’ physical health. Remedies for such abuse often seem few and far between, especially as abusers adapt to new circumstances. Attorneys thus need innovative legal strategies and advocacy to support abused older adults and remedy abuse. This training will provide information and resources to help attorneys as they represent clients who may have experienced financial exploitation.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 444800 444800 13 G3840 2026-12-11T22:20:00Z 5:21:46 San Francisco CA USA https://www.pli.edu/programs/ethical-issues-in-pro-bono-representation/442166?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Ethics and professional responsibility Immigration and naturalization Public interest law and pro bono Nonprofit organizations Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 442166 442166 13 G3020 2026-12-14T16:20:00Z 2:20:46 New York NY USA https://www.pli.edu/programs/nuts-and-bolts-of-corporate-bankruptcy/441837?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Bankruptcy and restructuring Bankruptcy process Corporate bankruptcy Practice skills (Bankruptcy and restructuring) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Bankruptcy and restructuring) Businesses in financial distress are not an unusual sight these days, and as a result, it is essential for attorneys of all levels and in all practice areas to become familiar with the fundamental tenets of bankruptcy law.
