2024 Fall Conference on Consumer Finance Law

Read Time: 1 min

Members of McGlinchey’s Financial Institutions Compliance, Financial Services Litigation, and Enterprise Litigation and Investigations teams will participate in multiple sessions during the upcoming Conference on Consumer Finance Law (CCFL) Fall Consumer Financial Services Conference at SMU Dedman School of Law in Dallas, Texas.

On November 14, 2024, Robert Savoie (Cleveland) will co-present “Rate Regulation Through DIDMCA and True Lender: Does It Matter and Is it Enforceable.” This presentation will review federal and state laws impacting consumer credit, focusing on the Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control Act (DIDMCA), rate exportation, the National Bank Act, and true lender laws. Robert will discuss these issues and how they are impacting financial services companies.

On November 15, 2024, Kasey Davis (Houston) will participate in a panel presentation titled “The Mortgage Minefield: Current Challenges and Legal Trends.” This panel will discuss the CFPB’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on Regulation X, as well as current trends and hot topics in mortgage servicing litigation.

Dan Plunkett (New Orleans) and Sandy Shatz (Irvine) will co-present “Recognizing, Protecting, and Preserving the Attorney-Client Privilege.” This panel will discuss how the ABA Model Rules, adopted in 1983, serve as a cornerstone for legal ethics and professional conduct in the United States. While many states have embraced these Model Rules, others have tailored their own versions to better suit local legal landscapes. For in-house counsel, navigating these rules can be particularly complex, as they must adhere to the specific requirements of the states where they are licensed and where they provide legal advice. This dual compliance ensures that in-house counsel maintains the highest standards of ethical practice across different jurisdictions.

The Conference on Consumer Finance Law (CCFL) offers educational services, publications, and research relating to consumer financial services law. Learn more.
