Join us as we dive deep into the complex worlds of equities, embryos, and ethics at warp speed - it's going to be a wild ride!

About this Event

Join the Virginia Chapter of the AAML for a full day conference addressing today's most complex family law challenges. This CLE, open to both AAML members and non-members alike, covers essential topics from executive compensation and private equity valuations in high-asset divorce cases, to evidence-based research on divorce impacts on children. We will hear from experts on emerging issues including embryo disposition rights and Virginia parentage law for LGBTQ+ families. Our lunch hour will emphasize attorney wellness with a discussion about transference, countertransference, and managing emotional boundaries in family law practice. Attendees will gain practical insights from judges, practicing attorneys, mental health professionals, and niche practice experts, with CLE credits that include ethics and wellness. We hope to see you there!
