Special Workshop: California Car Buyer's Bill of RightsThe National Association of Dealer Counsel continues to produce timely and relevant meetings for its members. Thirty-three attorneys attended the NADC workshop in San Diego on June 23. The California Car Buyer's Bill of Rights (AB 68) was the topic addressed by the workshop. This legislation became effective on July 1, so this meeting was very timely. The workshop was open to all California attorneys regardless of their membership in NADC. It was felt that the issues addressed in the workshop were important for all attorneys who practice dealership law in California. Several non-members who attended the event have become members. NADC board member, Rob Cohen, Auto Advisory Services, Tustin, moderated the panel and panelists included Peter Welsh, executive director, California Motor Car Dealer's Association, Sacramento, Bert Rasmussen, Manning, Leaver, Bender and Berberich, Los Angeles and Rene Ramirez, Hudson Cook, LLP, El Segundo. The workshop included an overview of AB 68. A concentrated discussion on the contract cancellation option, interest rate reserve caps, credit score disclosure, F&I products and services disclosure and certified used vehicles provided ample content for the lively and informative discussion between panelists and attendees during the four-hour workshop. NADC is unique in its ability to provide this type of focused workshop. With the wealth of knowledge among our members and their willingness to share information, we should be able to offer sessions like this as the need arises. Please let Jack Tracey, executive director, or any of the NADC board members know of topics that you would like to have covered in a focused workshop setting. The workshop also included a discussion of formation of a California state chapter of the NADC. Take a look at the agenda.
