    Product Description

    Join us for a comprehensive panel discussion delving into the intricate intersection of alimony and child support, particularly in the aftermath of the Supreme Judicial Court’s landmark Cavanagh v. Cavanagh decision. This seminal ruling has introduced significant considerations and implications for family law practitioners, demanding a thorough understanding of its impact on client representation and case strategy.

    With a focus on practical insights and strategic guidance, this seminar equips attendees with the necessary tools to effectively navigate complex scenarios and provides insight into how courts are interpreting and applying Cavanagh in practice.
