Foreclosure Defense A Popular Subject At Florida Bar Convention

In Boca Raton, Florida, the South Florida Business Journal reports:
  • A foreclosure defense attorney from Jacksonville found a warm reception at the Florida Bar's convention in Boca Raton last week. About 20 attorneys swarmed the podium after April Charney delivered her speech during a session titled "Protecting Consumers from Housing Havoc." "This was the best speech I've ever seen on this topic," Fort Lauderdale attorney Ken Whitman said. Charney has made a name for herself at the Jacksonville Legal Aid Society for getting dozens - she said hundreds - of foreclosure actions tossed out of court.
