Presented by the ISBA Family Law Section and the Standing Committee on Military Affairs
Although every jurisdiction in the U.S. has established legal standards for the determination of child custody and family law issues that practitioners are familiar with, very few of those practitioners have any meaningful experience, information about or familiarity with aspects of military service and its impact on divorce, child custody, and parenting. Too often, custody litigation involves a service member returning from deployment to be faced with psychological evaluations and other investigations at a time when they are least prepared and under great stress. Join us for a better understanding of how military service impacts the intact family, as well as the insights you need on child custody considerations in military service cases. Child law attorneys, military lawyers, and family law practitioners who attend this seminar will: - better understand the role that the military service plays in family law cases;
- get helpful information regarding the benefits available to service members and their families;
- discover how service-related disabilities – such as post traumatic stress disorder – can affect parenting and custody issues;
- learn the methodology of a custody evaluation; and
- receive best practice tips for representing service members in the family law courts.

Presented by the ISBA on 11/13/12
Although lawyers write for a living - producing more copy than most journalists - not all lawyers appreciate what an advantage it is to write clearly and persuasively. This one-hour seminar will give you the quick-fix tips you need to develop strong writing skills! Topics include recognizing and fixing common writing problems, emphasizing clarity and readability, document design, editing, and developing a strategy to continually improve your writing.
The seminar is taught by Jim Covington, ISBA's Director of Legislative Affairs, who believes that lobbying by paper is paramount to ensuring a broader listening audience in the Capitol. He has represented ISBA in the State Capitol for more than 15 years, staffed the Illinois Senate Judiciary Committee in Springfield, and practiced law in downstate Illinois. His devotion to the study and practice of the legal writing craft has placed him in a position of respect at the Statehouse because of his carefully drafted one-page position papers written on behalf of ISBA on matters of public policy.

Presented by the ISBA Education Law and Child Law Sections on 5/14/12 as part of the Education Law Jump Start: A Primer and Update for New (and not so new) Attorneys
Freedom of Speech, separation of church and state, search and seizure, and the right to a public education are all constitutional rights granted to American citizens. For students, however, some of these rights are limited, making it difficult for school districts to know where to draw the line. Gain a better understanding of how students' rights are limited once they step through the schoolhouse gates, and how to advise school districts so they can effectively uphold students' limited rights without crossing the line.

Presented by the ISBA Administrative Law Section, the Young Lawyers Division, the General Practice Section, and the Government Lawyers Section on 6/6/12
Increase your familiarity with procedures before administrative agencies and
enhance your ability to deal with a variety of administrative hearing issues!
Practitioners are not always well-versed with administrative hearing procedures and the rights their clients may have in cases before administrative agencies. Likewise, administrative law judges are not as conversant as they should be with the administrative framework they operate under. Get the best practice tips you need for the successful prosecution, defense, and decision-making processes in administrative law cases with the information provided in this seminar. Administrative law judges and attorneys who practice before administrative law agencies will benefit from the relevant topics covered, including subpoena issues, the right to cross-examine witnesses, and procedural requirements. The program includes a mock hearing in which our administrative law judges play the roles of attorneys prosecuting and defending a case, while an administrative law judge presides at the hearing.
