OBA Constitutional, Civil Liberties and Human Rights Law PROGRAM
12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (ET)
Successfully litigating a claim under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms requires more than citing leading cases. It demands strategic planning, a strong evidentiary foundation, and careful navigation of procedural and substantive law.
Our panel of experienced private and public sector lawyers is here to share a practical roadmap for:
- Framing pleadings to set you up for a successful claim, including accurately identifying government actors;
- Developing a persuasive Charter argument;
- Effectively managing notice requirements;
- Marshalling the necessary evidence;
- Determining what remedies to seek; and
- Navigating funding programs and options for plaintiffs.
Register today to secure your spot and equip yourself to tackle your next Charter claim with confidence.
