Tour of the New York Family Court
"The Family Court - Tips from the Inside"
Join us as the New York Women's Bar Association takes a tour of the New York County Family Court, from the ground floor up. Meet with a clerk who knows the inner workings and systems; meet with Judges and others who will explain their specific roles; meet one of the many devoted "panel" attorneys who handle enormous caseloads with grace, compassion and skill; learn the law, and see how the remarkable decision-makers apply the law to every type of family, including those never contemplated by the legislators.
