Course Overview
In a perfect world, families would be able to communicate effectively in any situation. In the real world, many families need the assistance of an outside authority. Clients facing this kind of situation need sound advice and care.
In this short course, accredited specialist in family law, Kathryn Kearley, will guide you through the process of advising a client that is seeking urgent or interim orders (which may include an order to stop their former partner or spouse from doing something, or to compel their former partner or spouse to do something).
At the end of this course, you’ll be able to:
- Advise the client about types of urgent or interim orders and applications which may be appropriate for their situation
- Explain the court process to the client
- Know the procedural steps to take when making an urgent application or an interim application to the court
