Overview:
In an area of law that requires your thorough understanding of extraordinarily complex rules, you need a seasoned guide. Bill Henning brings a lifetime of practical experience, teaching, writing, memorable anecdotes and humor to that critical assignment. Your time is valuable … make the most of it with a leading national expert who will return dividends to your practice.
Your clients will be confronted with an array of third parties — led by the bankruptcy trustee — whose interests in collateral might take priority if you haven’t created airtight transactions. Henning explores and exposes the ins, outs, tricks and traps of UCC Article 9, and he goes beyond Article 9 to explain practical steps you can take to safeguard the integrity of your clients’ transactions.
Henning has served with the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws much of his professional life — as a commissioner from two states, as executive director, as chair of drafting committees and currently as a member of the Joint Review Committee.
Henning’s great value to you, however, is his proven ability to take the dense language of Article 9 and apply it to your everyday practice. He has both an encyclopedic knowledge of Article 9 and a depth of practical knowledge as well as a wealth of specific examples of how Article 9 governs and guides the secured transactions that are the lifeblood of your clients’ businesses.
