The PLA has a long history of presenting quality "home grown" continuing
legal aid seminars to Peel lawyers. They deal with the hottest issues
from a local perspective.
The CLE seminars are open to lawyers
(members-in-good-standing of the Law Society of Upper Canada). Lawyers
who are not members of the PLA are welcome!
Cost of seminars are typically $40 ($60 for non-members),
but may vary for special seminars.
Suggestions for future seminars and comments about
past programs are welcomed: cle@peellawassionn.ca
The PLA also offers a series of forums or "roundtables" for family law lawyers to get together and talk shop. Topics covered so far have been:
- representing the abused spouse (March 28, 2007)
In cooperation with
the Peel Committee Against Women Abuse

- Gerard Michaud
Written materials from the seminars may be ordered from the Peel Law Library. Please contact us for the price for materials.
-
Please join us for the second part of this practical and informative
programme that will help you get yourself paid for what you did. Learn
how to avoid or do your best at assessment and determine whether your
client has a point when he or she complains about your predecessor’s bill.
