Estate litigation often involves litigants involved in different capacities such as in a trustee/executor capacity and/or personally. The interests in these capacities can sometimes overlap and cause confusion when personal interests are at odds with a trustee’s obligations. This issue can often bubble to the surface when the court assesses costs. In this webinar, Aaron Pearl will provide an update on how the court has treated such costs issues in estate litigation in recent decisions. tlabc.org/2026ESTCosts

Law school teaches you how to think like lawyers, but not necessarily how to build a fulfilling and sustainable legal career. In this candid session, Alexia Majidi will share lessons learned over a decade of practice, from developing a book of business and finding mentors beyond your own firm, to setting boundaries with clients, embracing discomfort, learning from mistakes, and leveraging your unique experiences and background as professional strengths. Join us for the last Trial By Fire No More session of the year tlabc.org/TBFNM20261105

Family law practice has entered a new and unsettling phase. Generative AI can now fabricate convincing photos, audio, and video, evidence that looks and sounds real but is not. At the same time, everyday technology, location tracking, shared accounts, smart devices, social media, is increasingly weaponized as a tool of coercive control and partner abuse, often invisibly, long after a relationship ends. For family law practitioners, the implications are immediate and practical: If you have ever questioned whether a piece of digital evidence was real, or struggled to advise a client on protecting themselves from tech-enabled abuse, you won't want to miss this session by experienced security professionals Doug Maynard and Scott Tingren.

Erica was riding her motorcycle through a green light when a driver T-boned her. The crash cost her most of the meniscus in her right knee, the sports she loves, and the community that came with them. A year later, she can’t run, lives with constant pain, and is facing a full knee replacement.

Under BC’s no-fault system, she was offered $3,800. There was nothing for the pain and suffering, and she has almost no way to challenge the decision.

“I don’t feel taken care of.”

Erica’s experience isn’t unusual. Since 2021, people injured on BC roads have lost the right to seek fair compensation, even when someone else causes the crash. The all-party review that was meant to examine how the system is failing them was shut down when the snap election was called.

Victims deserve to be heard. No-fault needs reform.

Five years ago, BC moved to no-fault auto insurance. For the people in the video, that has meant five years of pain and suffering. A pedestrian hit in a crosswalk. A cyclist who was struck on his way to work and can no longer walk. A driver rear-ended by a truck that never slowed down. A survivor whose first contact with ICBC was being handed paperwork in her hospital bed.

Under no-fault, injured British Columbians generally can’t hold the at-fault driver responsible. They have to accept what ICBC decides, with little ability to challenge it. As one survivor put it, the system is like “a hall pass for drivers,” and that puts everyone at risk: pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and passengers.

The all-party review meant to examine how no-fault is working was shut down when the snap election was called. These voices still need to be heard.

No-fault needs reform.

It's one of the first strategic decisions in almost every family law matter, and one of the most consequential. Provincial Court or Supreme Court of British Columbia: which is the right venue for this client, this file, this set of facts? The conventional wisdom has always been split. Some practitioners swear by Provincial Court's speed, accessibility, and lower cost. Others will not touch a complex parenting or support matter without the full toolkit the Supreme Court offers. But what do experienced family law lawyers actually choose, and why? Trudy Hopman and Kathryn Panton will walk through the age-old question: where does this case belong?
