34th Annual Institute of Trial Advocacy

Join JAMS and our neutrals at the Southern California Chapter of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML)  34th Annual Institute of Trial Advocacy. The Annual Trial Advocacy Institute brings together family law practitioners, judicial officers, and educators for a multi-day program focused on trial skills, advocacy, and current issues in family law. Participants will engage in presentations, demonstrations, and discussions designed to strengthen courtroom practice and deepen understanding of complex family law matters.

JAMS Neutrals Hon. Melinda Johnson (Ret.), Hon. Glen Reiser (Ret.), and Hon. Nancy Wieben Stock (Ret.) will be among this year’s speakers, contributing to panels that explore judicial perspectives, effective advocacy, and evolving challenges in family law litigation.
