If It's Broke, Fix It!
Building on the momentum from last year's recharge, the Family Law Institute (FLI) returns to the beautiful Vail Valley with a powerful theme focused on practical approaches and effective solutions in family law. Whether you're seeking to deepen your expertise, engage with leading professionals, or influence the future of domestic relations practice in Colorado, FLI 2024 is your essential destination. Here are key reasons to attend:
Expert Insights and Thought Leadership: Hear from luminaries like Dean Robert Leckey of McGill University, who will explore how family law adapts to evolving family dynamics, and who will challenge attorneys to reflect on their roles within this dynamic landscape. Dr. Stephanie Tabashneck, Psy.D., J.D., of Harvard University will prompt a reconsideration of best practices relating to substance use and parenting in family court.
Networking and Community Building: Engage with peers, mentors, judges, and newly licensed legal paraprofessionals from across Colorado. Expand your professional network in an environment dedicated to community enrichment.
Professional Growth and Learning: Participate in sessions that push the boundaries of conventional thinking and provide you with the latest strategies and tools to advance your family law practice.
Secure your spot for an experience that promises professional enrichment and community engagement amidst the glorious Rocky Mountains.
A limited agenda is available for webinar participants.
