WeirFoulds LLP 2011 Professional Development Seminar Series
As of January 1, 2011, the Law Society of Upper Canada requires that all lawyers, including in-house counsel and paralegals, complete a minimum of 12 hours of continuing professional development in each calendar year, including three hours of accredited programming related to professional responsibility, ethics and practice management.
To assist our clients in meeting this requirement, WeirFoulds is pleased to invite you to attend any or all sessions in a breakfast series we are hosting over the coming year at our offices at 130 King Street West, 15th floor. Our first session outlined below has been accredited by the Law Society of Upper Canada for one hour towards the annual Professionalism Requirement and one hour towards the annual New Member Requirement.
