Collaborative Family Law Group members interested in volunteering on behalf of our group at Law Day please contact Lori ([email protected]) or Joan ([email protected]).
On Saturday April 29th, 2017 the Canadian Bar Association is celebrating the 35th anniversary of the signing of Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Our annual Law Day provides an opportunity for the public to learn about the law, the legal profession and the legal institutions that form the cornerstones of Canadian democracy.
Law Day is an excellent way for the public to learn about the vital role lawyers and the judiciary serve in guaranteeing an open, independent and unbiased judicial system. Various organizations will showcase what kinds of careers are available in the legal system.
Activities include courthouse tours, mock trials, and attendance by the fire department, law enforcement officers, ambulance attendants, court clerks, registry staff, lawyers and judges to name a few!
Community agencies will take part in a fair to provide information about their organizations.
Law Day is a family friendly event, open to all ages.
COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE VANCOUVER SOCIETY ANNOUNCES
Integrative Mediation Training – Basic through Advanced Level Training
Facilitated by Stephen Sulmeyer, Lawyer & Psychologist (www.sulmeyermediation.com/about)
Integrative Mediation (IM) is an innovative, structured co-mediation model combining the skills and expertise of a lawyer and mental health professional (and where appropriate a financial expert) to address disputes in a sensitive and holistic manner. By addressing all facets of a dispute—emotional, legal and financial—IM helps parties cut through posturing and positioning and reach optimal solutions that help bring healing and psychological closure as well as legal finality.
Join us for a two-day training on Thursday, May 11 and Friday, May 12, 2017 to learn and practice this model from the initial client contact to the final resolution of the case, using realistic scenarios tailored to the needs of the training participants. Thursday will be a basic, nuts-and-bolts training, geared towards those who have not yet done an IM case. Friday will be an intermediate and advanced training, geared toward those who have taken a basic IM training (including the one on the preceding Friday) and/or have had experience practising the IM model.
Reasons to train in Integrative Mediation:
- Learn how to work effectively with allied professionals in a seamless and integrated manner that delivers amazing results.
- Learn how to cut through impasse and bring meaningful resolution, healing and closure to your clients by getting to the heart of any dispute.
- Improve your dispute resolution skills in all kinds of cases you practice, whether IM, solo mediation, or Collaborative Practice.
- Adapt your already existing skills to a new, carefully structured paradigm that is streamlined, intimate and cost effective.
