Feedback from last year’s event
“What a fantastic couple of days at the Family Practice Conference! I’ve left feeling very inspired and with lots of food for thought”
Gemma Hope, Family Law Partners
“It was a pleasure to attend the Family Practice conference yesterday. Louisa Whitney spoke brilliantly about the value in communicating with compassion, and I’m leaving with lots of tips about what I can do to be a solution focussed family lawyer.”
