12-1:15 Central Time (10-11:15 Pacific, 11-12:15 Mountain, 1-2:15 Eastern)
This session will focus on some more recent and upcoming legislation and litigation. We will provide several important updates on CFPB enforcement actions and the constitutionality of the CFPB. We will also cover the latest updates in regards to bankruptcy litigation and potential litigation risks related to the CARES Act. In addition, our legal practitioners will provide important guidance surrounding several potential litigation risks associated with the foreclosure moratoriums that lenders, servicers and their attorneys need to be aware of. Some of the areas that are ripe for litigation include dealing with ongoing foreclosures, the prohibition on charging penalties, interest, fees, etc. during a forbearance period, the prohibition on requiring additional evidence of financial hardship for forbearance requests and a possible uptick in debt validation requests and QWRs after the moratoriums end.

Law Firm & Service Provider Readiness – Planning for the Unknown
Thursday, December 17, 2020
12-1:15 Central Time (10-11:15 Pacific, 11-12:15 Mountain, 1-2:15 Eastern)
Join our panel of attorneys, servicers and service providers to explore the unknowns that surround our expectations of returning default volumes in 2021. How do law firms prepare for the coming default work when there are so many variables and unknowns in play with the current moratoriums? What if moratoriums continue past 2020, will there be file maintenance fees or other compensation available to law firms for the work they are providing with files that are on hold? What does that mean for the financial stability of law firms if default revenues remain non-existent? How does a law firm ramp-up and have adequate staffing without knowing what the default volumes will be, and when they will resume? What can servicers provide to the law firms to help them be prepared? We plan to address these and many other questions that are on the minds of all industry stakeholders as we conclude the year and make predictions for what is to come for us in 2021.
