    Hello Family Law Section members,

    On Thursday, Nov. 1, NJICLE in cooperation with the NJSBA Senior Lawyers Committee will present Advanced Matrimonial Mediation Workshop from 9 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. at the New Jersey Law Center.

    At this 4-hour workshop, a panel of mediators experienced in matrimonial cases will present strategies that can help you resolve conflicts between parties in divorce proceedings. By participating in a combination of lectures, discussions, demonstration exercises and role plays, you'll have an immediate opportunity to practice your skills, and also learn how the family courts are using mediation to settle disputes.

    Although this program is designed to fulfill the 4-hour annual requirement for court-approved mediators in matrimonial cases, it will also be of interest to any family law practitioner seeking to enhance mediation skills. Attendance at the program can also be used to fulfill the 4-hour annual requirement for court-approved mediators in the Civil, General Equity & Probate Program.
