Upcoming Events for Family Lawyers

On 29 May 2026, the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia issued its long-awaited Practice Direction on the use of Artificial Intelligence. It applies to every lawyer, litigant and expert appearing before the Court. It's about what you file, how you draft and what tools you use in everyday practice.

We'll answer your questions and more - join us for a half-day session designed to help family lawyers navigate AI with confidence.

Date: Thursday, 23 July 2026
Time: 9:00am - 12:00pm
Location: 200 Barangaroo Ave, Barangaroo NSW 2000 (In-person only)

The session will conclude with a complimentary lunch at Lotus Barangaroo.

Every two months, our showcase session will guide you through the family law apps, tools and features built into your LEAP subscription, shown the way you'd use them in a live matter.

With new tools at each session and a live Q&A with our product experts, you'll walk away with LEAP skills you can apply to all of your family law matters going forward.

Our next session on Monday, 10 August, we'll cover the following:

• Balance Sheet + v5

• Parenting Calendar + v3

• Spousal Maintenance Estimator v2
