At MacLean Law we handle some of the most complex and contentious marriage breakdowns with the utmost discretion, and our lawyers also contribute to the communities they live in. Community engagement is of utmost importance to us. The practice of law is not just a business, it is our passion and we are happy to share our knowledge with our community members.
In an effort to assist our peace region residents, Nassim Nasser, our local Fort St. John lawyer, has taken the initiative to host free monthly family law seminars.
Through these seminars, Nassim will impart general information about Family Law to the local members of our northern British Columbia community. Attending these seminars will not create a solicitor-client relationship and will not constitute independent legal advice, however, we promise you will take home a luggage tag and possibly some very useful general information about family law.
Nassim held her first Family Law Information Session on BC Courts on March 9, 2015 in our local Fort St John office. Thanks to those who attended, the event was great a success!
The first session covered topics such as:
- Jurisdiction of provincial court as it relates to Family Law matters;
- Supreme Court’s jurisdiction in family law cases; and
- Forms and procedures in each level of the court
Nassim will continue to host the free monthly family law information sessions and the next session scheduled for April 20, 2015 at 4:30 pm, is about property division upon separation in BC. Nassim will discuss what constitutes family property under the Family Law Act, definitions of excluded property, reapportionment under the Family Law Act, and common law remedies available to separating couples such as unjust enrichment.
If you are interested in our free community family law seminars offered at our Fort St John office, register early to save a seat as space is limited. Registration is available at Nassim’s eventbrite page.
