Juvenile Law Update
Program Highlights
If your work includes juvenile law issues, plan to attend the Juvenile Law Section's Annual Juvenile Law Update for 2011.

An overview of the past year's most pertinent cases and some of the pending bills of the current legislative session will help you remain updated on the law, and an ethics presentation will assist you in resolving some of the complicated ethical issues that arise in juvenile practice.
The day's topics are taught by experienced experts in the area of juvenile law, including judicial officers, juvenile law attorneys, and medical and mental health professionals.
