Event Phone: 416-593-0210

Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada (Online)

Trainers: Hilary Linton (JD, LL.M, Acc FM, Cert.FM., FDRP Arb/PC)

Organization Presenting the Program: Riverdale Mediation Ltd.

Description:

This 30-hour course offers learners an accessible and engaging overview of the key considerations that family mediators, arbitrators and parenting coordinators need to know.

As more clients come to FDR processes without legal representation, it is increasingly important for those FDR professionals to ensure that their clients understand the legal implications of settlement options.

In particular, FDR professionals should be able to recognize:

• the legal rights and responsibilities in play
• the applicable statutes, guidelines and case law
• the range of process options available to the parties to reach outcomes; and
• the range of outcomes that a lawyer or court would consider appropriate.

Through engaging live and recorded lectures, live TA sessions, additional reading and online learning and test questions following each segment, this course provides a comprehensive overview of family law.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This course is a survey of family law in Ontario. It is legal information only. Nothing in this course constitutes legal advice. Students should seek legal advice from a family lawyer if they seek legal advice pertaining to their circumstances.
