A recording of the November 22, 2024, live webinar entitled “Trial Skills for Child Welfare Cases: Preserving the Record for Appeal,” and accompanying materials are now available on the Children’s Commission’s On-Demand Training and MCLE webpage.

Speakers Leslie Capace, Managing Attorney of the Appellate Section for the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, and Mark Zuniga, Staff Attorney for the Texas Justice Training Center, provided an overview about how trial attorneys can preserve issues for appeal by securing rulings on the record, making offers of proof, and filing bills of exception.

The State Bar of Texas approved 1.0 hours of MCLE for the webinar, and the Texas Board of Legal Specialization approved 1.0 hours for certification and recertification continuing legal education requirements for attorneys and paralegals in the specialty field of Child Welfare Law.
