CLE EVENT: NON-PARENTS IN PARENTAL ROLES: WHERE TO FILE AND WHY

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28 | 12:00 – 1:30 pm

Grandparents, step-parents, and other relatives are often placed in the role of parent/guardian for minor children. To carry out their “parental” responsibilities or to protect the minors in their possession, these non-parents often need to seek court intervention and are presented with several options, including:

  • Custody in Domestic Relations Division
  • Guardianship in the Probate Division
  • Order of Protection in the Domestic Violence Division
  • Adoption in the County Division

This CLE will discuss the strategy and procedure you will need if a non-parent seeks your guidance.

LOCATION: Zoom information and materials will be provided via email ahead of the CLE.

ADMISSION: FREE TO STUDENTS & HBA MEMBERS | NON-MEMBER $25
