The Conference on Consumer Finance Law (CCFL) is a non-profit organization founded in 1926 by members of the legal profession and the financial services industry to offer educational services, publications and research relating to consumer financial services law.  A Governing Committee of members establishes policies and directs the activities of the CCFL.  The CCFL publishes the Consumer Finance Law Quarterly Report, a law journal that examines legislation, regulations, court decisions and related legal developments in the consumer financial services industry.

Adam Hutchinson participated with other industry experts on a Panel entitled, “Navigating Priority of Lien Disputes with Floorplan Lenders Arising from Quartz v. Mullen Bros. and Potential Liability in California for Attorney’s Fees Following Pulliam v. HNL Auto”.

Austin Kenney’s panel addressed, “Are You Covered?: Behind the Drive to Regulate GAP Waivers and Other Ancillary Products”.
