Bridging the communication gap between attorneys and servicers, and finding the best way to communicate legal and business language is always a struggle in the default servicing industry.
In order to alleviate that communication gap, Legal League is presenting a webinar titled, “Let’s Talk: Effectively Communicating—The Good and the Bad,” set for Thursday, October 12, from 1:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m. Central.
When unique knowledge sets and nomenclatures are involved, there will always be communication challenges. Legal League has assembled a panel of GSE execs, servicers, and expert attorneys who will dig into those challenges, and how to surmount them.
