Family law is undergoing its most profound shift in decades, and the line between domestic disputes and civil torts has been completely redrawn. Join us for an exclusive, complimentary webinar featuring ACTLA’s president elect Travis Bissett, K.C., a leading voice in civil litigation and family law disputes.

Leveraging his extensive experience handling both high-conflict family files and complex tort claims, Travis will guide family law practitioners through the specific standards of care established by the courts when representing clients in tort actions.

This timely session provides essential, actionable guidance for all family law practitioners in light of the Supreme Court of Canada’s highly consequential landmark ruling in Ahluwalia v. Ahluwalia. With the Court’s formal recognition of the new tort of intimate partner violence—specifically validating patterns of coercive control, financial abuse, and psychological harm over isolated incidents—understanding how to navigate this shifting framework is now vital to protecting your clients and updating your litigation strategies.

This webinar will provide an indispensable, comprehensive review of nine critical cases that practitioners must be aware of to effectively navigate civil liability within a family law practice.

This Lunch and Learn is hosted virtually via Zoom. Registrants will receive a link via email prior to the webinar.
