Hinshaw partner Colin Winkler will co-present an AccountsRecovery.net webinar, "Breaking Down the NYC Proposed Debt Collection Rule," on March 3, 2026, at 3 pm Eastern. Colin’s panel will examine the major provisions of the SHIELD Rule (Stopping Harassment and Intimidation and Ensuring Lawful Debt) and discuss its potential impact on businesses.

The SHIELD Rule is poised to become the most comprehensive local debt collection regulation in the United States. The rule introduces significant restrictions on how debt collectors may communicate with consumers, expands consumers' rights to dispute debts, and establishes new standards specifically targeting medical debt practices.

This session will be helpful for any organization involved in debt collection or account management in New York City—including collection agencies, creditors, debt buyers, and healthcare providers—as understanding the rule’s requirements will be critical for compliance.
