Event Information
Join Attorney Matthew Urban of Weltman, Weinberg & Reis Co., L.P.A., to learn what credit unions need to know to properly enforce a statutory lien or right of offset on an account and what procedures are involved in the process. This webinar will answer many of the questions we receive on the Compliance Hotline, such as:
- What requirements must be met in order for a credit union to exercise its right of offset to pay a delinquent credit card?
- What if my borrower dies and there was another person on the deposit account but not on the loan?
- What if the account contains protected funds such as Social Security, can I still use the right of offset?
- Can I take the full amount of the loan if my member is delinquent or do I just take one payment?
- And many more!
