Domestic Violence Committee and Family Law Section Offer Free Pro Bono Training

9/16/10

The State Bar of Michigan Domestic Violence Committee and Family Law Section will offer a free training from 1-5 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 29, 2010 in Ann Arbor, and online in a simultaneous webcast. The event is free of charge with the agreement of each participating attorney to accept a pro bono family law case.

The training will cover initial client interviews, substantive legal issues, pleadings, pretrial and trial practices as they related to family law cases with domestic violence components, and is excellent for attorneys who are new to the area of family law and domestic violence. Each participant will receive a copy of “The Batterer as Parent: Addressing the Impact of Domestic Violence on Family Dynamics,” by Lundy Bancroft.

This training was made possible with a generous donation from the LEAP Fund of Grand Rapids. Funding does not necessarily reflect an endorsement of content.

Registration for this event is now closed.
