Eyeopening plenary with Dr Theopia Jackson and Anne Lucas about diversity today - creating space for understanding #CPCreativity

Welcome to our new IACP president, Francesca King. We are so lucky to have you! #IACP #CPCreativity

Huge welcome to 33 enthusiastic grads of CP level 2 Training I presented with Laurie Stein and Alison Anderson in TO this week. We look forward to working together to help families achieve settlements that meet real needs and protect important relationships.

And thanks to Patrick for why we do this.  “ I am usually an effective advocate, but really I generally feel that the client needs more than the isolated issues that we tend to identify in the litigation model and that the underlying emotional needs are crucial to address . “

Delighted to have participated at the OBA Annual Institute Emerging Trends in Family Law on a panel discussing practice models for the future Collaborative Law , limited retainers and coaching. #collaborativelaw #OBA #AnnualInstitute2019 #familylaw oba.org/Institute/Abou…

Settlement Advocacy and Mediation - what do they have in common? Sooo much! In preparing a mediation course with Christine Kim and an advocacy course with Victoria Smith I am astounded by the overlap. Curious as to your thoughts #lawtwitter and #mediationtwitter?
