ABLE2 invites you to join us for a panel on guardians and guardianship applications for persons with disabilities

During litigation, persons with disabilities may require a litigation guardian, or if no litigation guardian is available, the Office of the Public Guardian and Trustee (PGT) may become involved. When advocating for persons with disabilities, litigators need to be aware of when a guardian is required, and how to make that judgment call while maintaining confidence in their relationship with clients.
Date: January 28, 2025 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. EST via Zoom
This free webinar is eligible for 1.0 hour of Substantive CPD Credit with the Law Society of Ontario.

Registration closes on January 26, 2025 at 5 PM
