DESCRIPTION:CILA is excited to announce our upcoming CLE webinar, “Lawyers’ Responsibilities vis‐à‐vis Bad Actors”\nNavigating the world of immigration involves multiple key players, including lawyers, consultants, recruiters, employers, government officers, and educational institutions. Unfortunately, some individuals in these roles engage in unethical or incompetent practices that harm clients and undermine Canada’s immigration system.\nThis informative webinar will help you identify these “bad actors” and understand how their actions can affect both clients and the integrity of the immigration process.
