Lunch and Learn is a social responsibility project overseen by
Oppermans Inc, a family law practice with more than 24 years of experience. The weekly webinars are provided free of charge, aimed at creating awareness on child maintenance. This webinar was pre-recorded at the end of 2023, and the information contained therein was (and still is) correct at the time of recording—the Maintenance Act or Rules has not been amended or changed since. Discussions of relevant case law dealing with specific maintenance issues are found under the “free resource library” tab on the home page.
Affidavits referred to, or templates provided, are mere examples that could be used and should be customized to your specific matter. These documents, such as affidavits cannot be considered “outdated.” The additional speakers on some of these webinars were invited guest speakers who have participated out of their free will and have no affiliation or association with Lunch and Learn.
The details contained in these webinars are for educational and informative purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. You are strongly advised to consult with an experienced legal practitioner for advice on your specific maintenance matter.
