Service... it's a lost art form. However, the Commercial Law League of America has been sincerely devoted to the service of its members since it was founded in 1895.

We are nearly 4,000 members strong and are seeking new and vital members each day. Our membership includes professionals from around the globe. As the leading professional organization of collections, creditors' rights and bankruptcy professionals, we are here to serve YOU. Our members consist of attorneys who concentrate their practice in the areas of commercial law, collections, Uniform Commercial Code bankruptcy and reorganization. In addition, over 500 of our individual members are employed by commercial collection agencies.

The CLLA is also a founding sponsor of the American Board of Certification (ABC), which is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the public and improving the quality of the bankruptcy and creditor's rights law bars. The ABC has certified nearly 3,000 attorneys in consumer and business bankruptcy and creditors rights law nationwide.
