WALSH FAMILY LAW NEGOTIATION COMPETITION, held on March 13-14 2015. FDRIO was a supporting organization. This inaugural negotiation competition was sponsored by the Family Judges of the Superior Court of Justice, the Ontario Association of Family Mediation and Epstein Cole LLP, along with many other law firms and individual sponsors. This event was a great opportunity for family law students to practice their negotiation skills. FDRIO would like to thank all those students and professionals who participated in the event to make it a great success.
