Details
We tend to operate under the misconception that child marriage is something that happens ¿over there,¿ not in the United States. Don¿t miss this symposium as we take a comprehensive look at child marriage internationally and nationally, including how child marriage intersects various areas of law. Family law attorneys, immigration lawyers, child law practitioners, human rights counsel - and others interested in gaining knowledge on this important topic - who attend this seminar will better understand:
¿ How child marriage impacts those involved;
¿ The connection between child marriage, human trafficking,
and immigration;
¿ The factors influencing child marriage internationally and
nationally;
¿ Legislative initiatives to end child marriage;
¿ How attorneys and judges can help shape the law and the
culture surrounding this aspect of our society; and
¿ Much more.
