Join us from noon until 1:45 p.m. on Thursday, November 19 for "Deciphering the Federal Guidelines on the Paycheck Protection Program: What Every Attorney Should Know about Eligibility, Investigation, and Forgiveness."

Attorneys are all too familiar with the impact that COVID-19 has had on the U.S. economy. The Paycheck Protection Program, an integral part of the CARES Act passed by Congress in March 2020, was designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll. But the Paycheck Protection Program changed substantially with the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020—and may change again if the Heroes Act becomes law. The federal guidelines on the Paycheck Protection Program continue to evolve even as loan recipients near the time to seek full or partial forgiveness on their loans. Solo and small firm attorneys who may have received Paycheck Protection Program loans—or those who may be called upon to provide advice to clients regarding the Paycheck Protection Program—won’t want to miss this in-depth discussion on key components of this topic, including: the parameters for loan eligibility, loan forgiveness, and investigation by the federal government; understanding the CARES Act’s Paycheck Protection Program and the guidelines issued by the Small Business Administration regarding eligibility and forgiveness; and the avenues used and efforts taken by the federal government to combat fraud related to the Paycheck Protection Program.
