Product Description
Attention all South Shore family law practitioners:
This October, MCLE returns to Taunton for our annual Family Law Conference! If you’re serious about your family law practice and want to take it to a higher level, here’s an event you cannot miss.
The conference takes a deep dive into the most complex family law practice topics. Get ready for a lively, information-packed tour of the most critical cases decisions of 2019! Be briefed in the essentials of dividing a family-owned business in divorce, including the impact of various business structures and how they’re valued when it’s time to divide the assets. Learn to recognize red flags and valuation chicanery, and get savvy on the best use of financial experts when business meets divorce. Is your case headed for ADR? Learn to assess the pros and cons of guiding your client to an out-of-court settlement using a variety of litigation alternatives. Is a goldmine of electronically-stored evidence key to your win? Get the latest techniques for obtaining, preserving, and using cellphone, social media, texting, and email data. Expand your knowledge base and refresh your advocacy skills against the backdrop of ever-changing electronic discovery. If sensitive issues involving children are at the heart of your family law practice, you need expert perspectives on working with counsel for the child, guardians ad litem and parent coordinators to ensure that kids’ needs, safety, education and wellbeing are protected. Local judges share candid observations on what works—and does not work—in their own courtrooms. Arm yourself with their valuable insights! Here’s your opportunity to interact with the conference faculty and ask them the hard questions!
Network and learn from your peers while you expand your practical knowledge at this not-to-be-missed Taunton conference!
