This course will blend substantive legal principles with practical practice pointers. A popular returning feature will be the View from the Bench, wherein members of the judiciary share their observations concerning the most common problems plaguing counsel and how these problems can be remedied.
You can expect to come away with a collection of superb practice tips that you can apply immediately to enhance your effectiveness in chambers. The previous edition of this program in March 2023 received rave reviews.
