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

I swear this is the little book that could. Week two on the NYT Bestseller List 🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊

Today, @VictoriaSmithCP & @LaurieStein presented Day 1 of "The Interplay of Advocacy and Neutrality" in a virtual format to an experienced group of professionals from Kitchener, ON. Looking forward to Day 2 tomorrow! linkedin.com/posts/victoria…

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Easter and Passover weekend.

How do kids feel when they find themselves caught in the middle of parental conflict? Or when they're asked to take sides? We have their stories, and help from experts, on BreakUp, on CBC Radio One, Monday at 5pm EST. Or, listen here: cbc.ca/1.4845497 #disputeresolution

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…

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 . “

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.
