This annual primer on litigating the domestic relations case from A to Z is always a popular program. The program is a valuable update for those attorneys currently practicing family law and for those who might practice in this area in the future. Speakers will review the forms and procedures needed to take a case from client interview to entry of a decree and give tips on how to keep the case simple and keep it moving quickly to a resolution.
Up to 10 LBA members can attend this seminar FREE of charge by agreeing to represent TWO Legal Aid clients, pro bono, in their domestic relations matters. Please call the LBA CLE Department at 583-5314 for details.
