The Jeffrey P. Weinstein 2023 Family Law Institute is a two-day full immersion into all aspects of family law practice. We will be receiving instruction from numerous experts regarding a variety of topics, including how to review a tax return, what information is contained in a corporate return and how to develop a cash flow analysis. In addition, we will have experts reviewing actual financial and non-financial expert reports, examination of trust documents, instructing how to conduct a direct examination and cross-examination as well as how to interpret such reports.

We will also have a wide variety of judges at round table discussions to instruct us as to how to present motions at the trial level, how to argue appeals, how to formulate an emergent appeal and how to prepare appropriate appellate division papers.

This program will benefit family lawyers at all levels of experience, from those who have tried several cases to those who are starting out in this area of practice. The professionals attending will benefit from hearing fresh insights and nuanced perspectives about handling complicated and ethically challenging problems that arise in family practice.

The Summer Institute is a perfect event to learn from family law experts and family law judges with over 100,000 hours of actual courtroom experience.
