WASHINGTON and NEW ORLEANS, May 17 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 20
experienced consumer bankruptcy attorneys from across the United States
will hold a free, special workshop for Katrina survivors on May 20, 2006
from 3:30- 6 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom of the New Orleans Marriott Hotel,
555 Canal Street. Childcare will be available for those who need it.
The volunteers are all members of the National Association of Consumer
Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA), which is holding its 14th annual convention
from May 19-21, 2006 in New Orleans at the New Orleans Marriott Hotel.
NACBA Executive Director Brad Botes said: "If you are a Katrina
survivor who is concerned about a growing debt problem, facing home
foreclosure, unsure of your rights when it comes to a mortgage, car payment
or credit card bills, or facing bill collectors who are hounding you,
please attend this free, no- obligation seminar. NACBA members have been at
the forefront of speaking out on behalf of Katrina victims and this is
another way for our members to demonstrate how deeply our commitment and
concern runs."
Workshop participants are invited to attend a showing of "Maxed Out," a
new film recently featured at the Sundance Film Festival, which will be
showing at the conclusion of the workshop. For more information on the film
