This week’s online Family Law Practice Group (PG) webinar, co-hosted by ALISON GREEN and Chris Short, delved into the innovative co-parenting platform, #OurFamilyWizard. Alison, Group Leader of the MI Family Law PG, and Chris explored how this platform is revolutionising the divorce and separation process. They discussed the innovative co-parenting platform, OurFamilyWizard, and how it's transforming the divorce and separation process and how the platform offers a safe, neutral space for communication, efficient child arrangement management, and generates court-admissible reports. Thank you to Katie Deans for her insightful presentation. Divorce and separation can be a tumultuous period, fraught with legal complexities. MI Family Law PG offers members comprehensive guidance for domestic and international family law matters. With a focus on cross-border issues, members can advise on preparing pre and post-nuptial agreements that are enforceable in multiple jurisdictions. Get expert advice on the most suitable jurisdiction for divorce proceedings, service of overseas proceedings, asset valuation, and enforcement of foreign judgments.

We’re thrilled to learn that Rick Street, Managing Partner of Carmody Torrance Sandak & Hennessey LLP, has been recognised as a beacon of inspiration in the legal profession. His recent award - Regional Managing Partner of the Year at the ALM New England Legal Awards is a celebration of the kind of leadership we need more of. Why does Rick's achievement matter? Because it reminds us that the law is more than just a set of rules. It's about people. And it's about #LeadersWhoInspire and uplift those around them. It's about creating a culture of excellence. So, let us celebrate Rick and the kind of leadership that motivates and makes a difference.

Coast to Coast connections... At MI, yes, we love the magnificent melting pots of our big, headline meetings and activity. But sometimes the strong and flexible fabric of the network is woven by the happy, productive, quieter things that go on ‘under the radar’. The 'boys' from NYC, Karim Momin and Christopher Milito from Morrison Cohen LLP welcomed Binah Yeung from Seattle's Cairncross & Hempelmann. (The cheesy grins and the unabashed selfie say it all...) So often, the little things in life make a big difference. #legalnetwork #connected #coasttocoast
