This webinar aims to cover the basics of family law in British Columbia with an Abuse Focus, including subjects like guardianship and explain parenting time and responsibilities and how these terms may be allocated. This session will also review how the legislation defines family violence and various other terms. For instance, “common law” is not a legal term in the Family Law Act and yet, it gets used every day. We will pursue this and other colloquial terms in this session. The purpose of this workshop is to give the participants the vocabulary to have a dialogue in the family law realm in regards to abuse, and to help their clients with the same.
