The Patrick D. Schmidt Future<br />

of Family Law Award<br />

The Advocates’ Society is proud to announce the introduction of the Patrick D. Schmidt Future<br />

of Family Law Award. This award was established to honour the late Patrick D. Schmidt and to<br />

promote excellence in the profession by supporting junior lawyers in their early years of<br />

practice who are choosing to dedicate their practice to family law.<br />

This award was created to support the future of the family law bar by offering a junior lawyer<br />

access to skills training, a strong advocacy community and some financial support as they<br />

develop their practice.<br />

The call for nominations will be announced in June <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
