Flying Solo: Best Practices for Managing Proceedings Commenced by Self-Represented Litigants
About this topic:
An increasing number of current and former employees are choosing to pursue their claims through courts and tribunals as self-represented litigants, without the assistance of legal counsel. This poses both practical and ethical challenges when defending and attempting to resolve these claims.
In this seminar, attendees will learn:
- How to manage litigation or potential litigation with self-represented individuals, including best practices for ethical advocacy
- Strategies the courts and administrative tribunals use to manage litigation involving self-represented litigants
- What concerns self-represented litigants have and how those concerns can affect the litigation process

Presenters:
Sarah Crossley, Giovanna Di Sauro and Laura Freitag.
