New and Updated Practice Area Fundamentals
If you are new to a practice area or if you simply want a refresher on the current law and practice in Manitoba, the Practice Area Fundamentals are a great place to start. With the help of volunteer lawyers with relevant practice experience we’ve been able to update the old Bar Admission (aka CPLED) materials in several practice areas. These resources are available to anyone in the profession at no cost.
