Hello Family Law Section members,

NJICLE is presenting its 2017 Family Law Summer Institute on Tuesday, July 25 and Wednesday, July 26 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the New Jersey Law Center.

The two day program reviews almost every aspect of family law practice. There's something for every family lawyer. Those just starting out benefit from hearing a large and authoritative panel of matrimonial attorneys and judges discuss how to conduct client interviews, deal with adversaries, and negotiate, settle and try cases. Experienced attorneys benefit from hearing fresh insights and nuanced perspectives about how to handle complicated and ethically challenging problems that often arise in family practice.
