Barcelona Spain and Georgia USA
Joint Family Law Conference and Networking Exchange
October 16 – 20, 2022
… so much we can learn from others…
Family law has become globalized, extending beyond national borders. Families are a mix of cultures, and are more transient than ever.
The purpose of this program is to expand our knowledge by taking a comparative approach as to how family law cases are handled in other jurisdictions around the world.
Viewing family law through a comparative lens helps us gain a better perspective of our own laws by expanding our horizons with insight and ideas from other cultures.
The program is designed to facilitate active engagement with our Barcelona hosts to share experiences, ideas and philosophies.
Such meaningful exchanges will foster a dialogue that will be beneficial to both Georgia and Barcelona attorneys.
This is a continuing legal experience!
Build connections with attorneys and professionals abroad.
Learn from cultural exchanges of information and ideas.
Tour one of the oldest and largest law libraries in the world.
Visit a courthouse and meet the judges.
Explore the excitement of Barcelona.
Travel to the Penedès wine country.
… and create memories of a lifetime!
