Welcome to the Bankruptcy Law Section of the State Bar of Texas.  The section is open to practitioners and other professionals working in the area of bankruptcy law and insolvency.

The section sponsors or supports numerous events throughout the year, including a biennial bench bar conference, the Elliott Cup moot court competition, “Moneywise” and many other programs.  We also publish a newsletter and try to be a source of other substantive content and news affecting bankruptcy and insolvency practice. 

Finally, check our calendar and the rest of this website to keep up with bankruptcy-related events throughout the state.  A great new networking / CLE event, Women of Bankruptcy 2020, is scheduled for January 10-11 at the Hyatt Lost Pines in Bastrop.   

We welcome and congratulate the section’s new chair, Tom Rice.  Tom is a member of Pulman, Cappuccio & Pullen, LLP, in its San Antonio office.  Learn more about Tom and his perspective as section chair in his Letter from the Chair.

Are you interested in being a judge for the Elliott Cup Moot Court?  If so, we are still in need of volunteers for the 2020 Elliott Cup Moot Court in downtown Houston on Friday, February 21st and Saturday, February 22nd.
