Member Benefits
In the last
year alone more than 10 states enacted new laws impacting the debt
negotiation industry, several amended their laws, the U.S. House of
Representatives again passed its bankruptcy reform legislation and
legal drafting committees are attempting to regulate the industry.
Those debt negotiators who are not part of an industry association
will not have their individual voices heard in the presentation of a
collective message. The effect and effectiveness of the USOBA
message on behalf of the industry is only as strong as the members
behind the organization.
Every debt negotiation company can receive tremendous value from the
USOBA member benefits. As a USOBA member you will, more
importantly, be part of the only association to promote and
safeguard the debt negotiation industry. You will also receive:
- State Law Guide
The USOBA State Law Guide is a summary of each of the
state laws applicable to the operations of debt negotiators. The
guide is not legal advice, but serves as a starting point for
your organization's leadership and legal staff to find the law,
understand its application to the industry and save thousands of
dollars on primary legal research. The guide is updated
periodically to reflect changes of the law, updated contact
information and new regulatory opinion letters.
- Member-Only Web
Page
All USOBA members are given a personal screen name and
password to access the Member-Only section of the USOBA
webpage. The Member-Only section features real-time postings of
relevant industry news, media coverage, legal analyses and a
member driven BLOG for posting your comments and reading those
of other members.
- Legislative and
Regulatory Representation
USOBA represents the interests of the debt negotiation
industry at all levels of government. It is USOBA's
mission to educate legislators and regulators about the
importance of debt negotiation and obtain fair treatment in the
enactment or amendment of the law.
- Newsletter
The USBOA newsletter, "The Bottom Line", is sent to
members electronically every other month. "The Bottom Line"
features articles and information of importance to the debt
negotiators about legislation, regulations, legal news and other
industry changes.
- Discounts to Industry
Conferences
As a USOBA member, you will receive significant discounts
to many important industry conferences. USOBA will hold a
winter and summer conference each year in locations ideal for
travel and meetings.

bringing together colleagues, experts, suppliers, vendors and
others who can all help you to run a better, more efficient,
