Pretty simple. General partnerships are dangerous for this reason.


This one covers:
- What perfection actually means in secured transactions
- The key difference between attachment and perfection 
- How to use the DID Cattle mnemonic so you never forget the filing rules
- Where to file, how to avoid screwing up a debtor’s name, and why a typo can cost you everything
- Special rules for cars, fixtures, money, accounts receivable, and investment property
- What happens if you file early, file in the wrong state, or let your financing statement lapse

This is the part of Article 9 where people start blacking out. Don’t be one of them. You already understand attachment, this is just the layer that makes it enforceable against the rest of the world.

Happy studying!
