  • Order outside the Court! The Right to Counsel in Out-of-Court Child Protection Matters
    4:45 PM-6:30 PM
    2022-04-04

    Many child protection issues involve out-of-court solutions. However, despite the critical issues at play, too often parents and children do not have the benefit of representation or legal advice until or unless a case is brought to court. Our panel of experts will address critical gaps in access to counsel and discuss the following issues:

    􏰀 Efforts being made to ensure that parents/children get access to representation/advice before a case gets to court;
    􏰀
    Circumstances when it would be prudent to have out of court representation/advice;
    􏰀
    Funding options available through Legal Aid Ontario;
    􏰀
    Remedies available when matters go awry without parties having the benefit of legal advice.
    􏰀
    Charter implications and creative court challenges ahead.
