The Pender Harbour Women’s Connection is pleased to have Leslie McDougall return as a speaker on May 14. Their audience was delighted with Leslie’s presentation of an entertaining flute concert at the Celtic New Year celebration. This time, Leslie returns in her professional capacity as a legal coach, owner of Legal Coach Studio. Leslie will explain how this new initiative will improve access to justice and be a more cost-effective approach for the lay/self-represented person. Leslie will clarify how as a legal coach, she can help people draft their own simple will, probate a will through the courts, obtain an uncontested divorce or assist with an existing court action. Doors open at 9:30 a.m. at the School of Music. Drop-in fee of $4 includes refreshments.
