Once seen as an acceptable area for ‘dabblers’, injury law is shaping up as a practice area in which only those with a pronounced edge in practical expertise will prevail. This unique, intensive Certificate program will give you the edge you need to handle injury files effectively as well as efficiently, on both the tort and AB sides, and from plaintiffs’ and defendants’/insurer’s perspectives.

Over five non-consecutive one-day modules–via Zoom from the convenience of your office or home– you will: 

· acquire essential knowledge as distilled by experts,

· learn where the pitfalls are and how to avoid or surmount them

· build your practice skills and have your most pressing questions answered.

Thursday, April 20, 2022 (Free virtual event)

Incivility in the practice of law is reaching epic levels. The business of law has transformed the art of argument as a form of discourse into a war of words. Hyper-aggressiveness is becoming synonymous with good advocacy. This has a significantly negative impact on our mental health, and ultimately on the credibility of our justice system. In this session, the TLA panel will explore the toxic effect of high-conflict behaviour on our mental health, our relationships with others, and discuss the importance of self-accountability.
