Multi-Disciplinary Approach to Advocacy: Legal & Non-Legal Partnerships
This presentation will focus on a multidisciplinary approach to advocacy in a legal setting. We will discuss tips on creating multidisciplinary teams, best practices in drawing from multiple disciplines to address and attempt to resolve complex legal issues and how multidisciplinary approach can enhance advocacy. We will also discuss some of the challenges that multidisciplinary teams face in reconciling different professional standards and often conflicting ethical requirements between attorneys and non-attorneys.
