The Dallas Bar Association Collaborative Law Section, the Global Collaborative Law Council, the SMU Dedman School of Law, and the Texas Center for Legal Ethics are co-sponsoring the 10th Annual Collaborative Law Practice Conference on October 8-10 at the Belo Mansion, located at 2101 Ross Avenue, Dallas. This conference is open to all interested in dispute resolution – not just to lawyers! Mediators, Human Resources professionals, Mental Health Professionals, and other ADR professionals are all welcome to attend.
This conference includes two separate seminars: on October 8 we will have a 3-hour program on unbundled legal services presented by Forrest “Woody” Mosten, a nationally recognized authority on the subject, and on October 9-10 a two-day training on civil collaborative law, involving both classroom presentations on the process and extensive interactive role play in a hypothetical dispute (this year, an international employment law dispute). Guest speakers at the training seminar include Marc Sheridan of New York and Florence Gladel of Paris, France. Additionally, in celebration of our 10th anniversary, on Thursday night we plan a special outing to the State Fair of Texas for all interested participants!
A discount is available to participants who sign up for both programs. Further details and registration can be found at: http://www.law.smu.edu/Events/Dean-Suite/10th-Annual-Collaborative-Law-Practice-Conference.aspx?c=hpEvent_10th-Annual-Collaborative-Law-Practice-Conference.
