Alexandria, Va. — American Bankruptcy Institute's Bankruptcy in Practice, Fifth Edition incorporates recent case law while bridging the divide between classroom theory, courtroom procedure and conference room negotiation. Last updated in 2006 to provide an overview of changes brought about by the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005, this new edition provides analysis of recent key bankruptcy cases, including Supreme Court cases Stern v. Marshall, Till v. SCS Credit Corp. and Baker Botts, LLP v. ASARCO. Bankruptcy in Practice assists both new and nonspecialist lawyers in demystifying the complicated rules of bankruptcy while providing experienced counsel with a refreshing and informative reference.
Authors Michael L. Bernstein of Arnold & Porter LLP (Washington, D.C.) and Prof. George W. Kuney of the University of Tennessee College of Law (Knoxville, Tenn.) collaborated to update this latest edition. Listen to an ABI Podcast featuring Bernstein and Kuney providing an overview of the book and their perspectives on blending bankruptcy doctrine with practical tips for counsel.
