Out of Court Lawyering: Skills Session for Resolving Disputes

Lawyers spend most of our time "out of court", and our day job is rarely just about the law!  Our clients bring their complex financial, relational, practical and emotional challenges to our doors, in the hopes we can find a fix. But when we jump in to help, we often face resistance from our own clients, all the while defending them against our learned friends – opposing counsel.

What the heck is going on and why didn’t law school prepare us to manage this complex web of (challenging) human behaviours!?!  

Join Jacinta Gallant for a 90-minute interactive webinar to learn more about the refined skills and strategies lawyers need to operate in the modern day.  Together we will explore:

• Why we get resistance when we are trying to help
• How our negotiating model helps and where it let’s us down
• How to work with challenging human behaviours by understanding conflict
• What we can do to engage in more productive discussions and less debate
• How do these strategies apply to our advocacy roles - in or out of court
• What we can do to be happier at work

In this webinar, Jacinta Gallant will invite you explore and embrace a practice filled with productive curiosity and insight so you can “get the job done” and get more enjoyment out of your practice.
