Hello Fellows,
As we move into March, I wanted to highlight some of the upcoming important milestones:
March is Women’s History Month, which gives us the perfect opportunity to recognize the countless women who have helped shape family law — and especially AAML — through their example, leadership and mentorship. If there’s a woman whose legal work or influence has impacted you or your practice, please contact me, because I’d love to highlight a story or two.
March is also Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, which reminds us that family law can look very different when developmental or cognitive differences are involved. This is such an important area of practice where shared experiences can really make a difference. If you have experience in this arena, helpful insight or a practice tip that could help others navigate cases involving parties or clients facing developmental disabilities with more understanding and empathy, please consider sharing it.
Finally, as we get ready for the AAML Midyear Meeting in Scottsdale, AZ, I hope you’ll stop by and say hello if you’re attending.
Personally, I love the meetings and look forward to meeting new people each year. If you have ideas on topics, stories or trends you think we should feature in future issues, please come see me, or reach out to me if you are unable to attend. The best ideas for the Newsletter come straight from you. So, please don’t be shy about sharing yours!
See you in Arizona,
Rob McAngus
