ALEX
GRAGER TRAINS ATTORNEYS
TO REPRESENT VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE |
FMBK Associate, Alex Grager, recently
participated as an instructor on a panel who taught attorneys and law students to assist
the victims of domestic violence. The Nuts and Bolt of
Legal Assistance for Victims of Domestic Violence was a program of the Beverly Hills
Bar Association Barristers.
Alex was joined by Marci Fukuroda, Director of Legal services for Rainbow Services, Ltd;
Denice Labertew, J.D., Director of the West San Gabriel Valley Center and Legal Services
Director for Peace Over Violence; and Jeanine Percival Wright, a pro bono attorney for
victims of domestic violence, from Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi, LLP. The panel
provided hands on MCLE training for attorneys, law students, and service providers on how
to assist victims of domestic violence in obtaining Domestic Violence Restraining Orders
and representing victims of domestic violence in family law and other related proceedings.
Alex discussed the mechanics of filing requests for restraining orders and conducting
court hearings on domestic violence issues. |
