2019 Colloquium Advocacy Session – Expert Witness

Colloquium is a Continuing Professional Development event for lawyers in northeastern Ontario organized by a committee of legal professionals. MEA is a sponsor of the 2019 edition taking place October 16-19 in Sudbury, Ontario, and our Senior Scientist Ken Iliadis is attending the event. He will take part in the Advocacy Session on Expert Witness.

It is the ninth annual Colloquium, inviting lawyers from all over the northeastern part of the province to connect. Attendees are expecting educational sessions on topics such as advocacy, child protection, civil litigation, construction law, criminal law, estates, family law, indigenous legal issues, law firm management and real estate. The program also includes a mentoring session for young lawyers and various networking events.  Evidence, one of our favorite topic at MEA, will also be discussed in a session chaired by Robert Parsons, Crown Attorney. This specific session’s program is as follow:
