Trends in Litigation
Our panel of experienced litigators will offer their unique perspectives on current trends in foreclosure-related litigation. The panel will discuss: the latest challenges to MERS; attacks on the nonjudicial foreclosure process; litigation over standing to foreclose, the latest foreclosure-avoidance schemes and more. In addition to hearing the perspective of front line litigators battling these issues on a daily basis, the audience will hear the in-house perspective of counsel from a servicer, trustee and MERS itself. This is a must attend event for any trustee who regularly finds itself in litigation.
