Collette Hosts Virtual Advisor Event on Legal Risks

Small, everyday decisions can quietly expose travel advisory businesses to costly legal risk over time. To help advisors stay ahead of those risks, travel professionals are invited to attend “Selling Strategies: A Legal Checkup for Travel Advisors,” a virtual event hosted by Collette, focused on the most common legal pressure points in the industry.

The event takes place May 12, 2026, at 12:00 p.m.

The session will feature Thomas Carpenter, Principal Attorney at Carpenter Law Group PC and Owner and Travel Advisor at Huckleberry Travel, who brings a rare dual perspective to the conversation. Drawing on real‑world experience from both the legal and travel sides of the business, Carpenter will participate in a practical discussion on issues advisors face most often, including terms and conditions, chargebacks, fraud, and the everyday workflow habits that can protect their businesses.

“Supporting travel advisors means helping them succeed in every aspect of their business, from strategy and growth to building confidence,” said Christian Leibl‑Cote, Executive Vice President of Global Sales. “We designed this event to give advisors practical ideas they can take back and use in their business right away.”

As part of a 5-part series dedicated to enhancing advisors’ selling skills, this event is designed to be sharp, relevant, and immediately applicable. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of risk possibilities and how to address common oversights before they become complex issues.

The virtual event is open to travel advisors who want to strengthen their business practices, reduce legal stress, and operate with greater confidence. For more information and to reserve a spot, interested advisors are encouraged to register in advance here.
