Description: Have you ever wondered how a Chapter 13 Trustee is compensated? Or how a Chapter 13 Trustee is similar and different from a Chapter 7 Trustee? Did you know that all Chapter 13 Trustees and their staff are capped on their compensation? This seminar will answer these questions and more. It will offer a behind-the-scenes look at how a Chapter 13 Trustee Office operates internally. Our presenters will focus on debunking the myths surrounding Chapter 13 Operations as well as shedding light on some little known facts that drive their policies and procedures. In turn, this will help inform your strategies for representing Chapter 13 debtors.

On July 16, 2025, the National Consumer Bankruptcy Rights Center (NCBRC) and the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA) filed a joint amicus brief in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in support of the debtor-appellant in Goddard v. Burnett, Case No. 25-1303. The case presents a critical question about the interaction between the statutory “means test” and the judicially interpreted “good faith” standard in Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases.
