Here is what is on tap for Family Law:
How to Triage Your High Conflict Custody Case2:50 - 4:30 p.m.Divorce litigation, especially when there is contested custody, is rarely a straightforward negotiation process. High conflict custody cases are among the most difficult for lawyers and the court system to handle. They often are an enormous strain on both lawyers’ and the court system’s time, and emotional and financial strain on the parties involved.
This CLE program will provide attendees with practical tips on how to better deal with high conflict custody cases and triage them.
Learn techniques for settling these cases, and if settlement cannot be achieved, for presenting the best case at trial as possible. Hear tips on what to do and what not to do when representing a client in a high conflict custody case
