Register online here.

In this 1-hr interactive webinar, BC Provincial Court (BCPC) judges will showcase some of the resources available for litigants navigating proceedings in the BCPC. Topics will include information on the type of matters the BCPC handles, how to prepare for court appearances both in-person and virtually, and resources to assist litigants in preparing documents for court. This will be followed by a Q&A period. Our panel will include Chief Judge Gillespie, Judge Ferriss and Judge Mundstock.

Intermediaries and advocates who assist clients with BCPC matters, public librarians, law students and general practitioners are all welcome to attend. We strongly encourage registrants to submit questions in advance to help inform the presentation and to make sure we can get to as many questions as possible during this session. Advance questions can be submitted up until February 18th using this link: https://tejoin.com/scroll/729472872
