I am proud of my longstanding membership in NACBA. As most consumer bankruptcy attorneys are solo or small firm practitioners, NACBA forums and Members Only Workshops give us a location to learn new materials, trends and tactics, and give us a refuge and available community of like-minded, caring professionals. This is crucial to professional advancement, avoiding professional isolation and aids much in problem solving for our clients.

NACBA is crucial. Failing to join and participate in NACBA is foolish and short sighted, in my opinion.

So, it is with great pleasure that I announce…….the following…….!!!!!

BIG NEWS! I am off to Colorado Springs to attend the prestigious (and awesome!) Members Only Workshop of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys October 27-29th, 2011.

Last October 2010, I attended the same annual three day workshop in Puerto Rico and was humbled and energized by the quality of people I met there. NACBA (of which I am a proud member) is a group of attorneys; NACBA really care about the practice of bankruptcy. NACBA members have an overwhelming compassion for the suffering and hardships of individuals and families that find themselves in a bankruptcy situation.

The NACBA Members Only Workshop education is top-notch! Few other local lawyers calling themselves bankruptcy attorneys bother to join NACBA….and even fewer attend the Members Only Workshops. In 2010, only four attorneys from the entirety of Washington state bothered to travel to Puerto Rico for the incredible October 2010 Members Only Workshop educational opportunity. Failing to attend at least one Members Only Workshop per year is a huge mistake. NACBA schools lawyers on the present practice and the future trends in representing people in federal bankruptcy court. Those attorneys calling themselves bankruptcy attorneys who do not participate in NACBA Members Only Workshop education offer only dated and dangerous information and technology …. Practicing bankruptcy law without the guidance and assistance of NACBA Members Only Workshops may be like driving around at night, in the fog, without bothering to turn on the headlights. Just a bit dangerous, you think?

Demand the best….demand that your bankruptcy attorney be an active and current member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys NACBA and that he/she attend at least one NACBA Workshop event per year.

Upon my return from NACBA Colorado Springs, I will write you a compelling email newsletter and some blog posts (see www.washingtonbankruptcy.com or www.jameshmagee.info for blog access) introducing you to some of the exciting new technology and information that I learned at the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys’ – Members Only Annual Workshop. I can hardly wait to share these new developments with you! Chat with you in November!

Very truly yours, James H. MaGee, attorney
