St. Louis, MO (PRUnderground) April 16th, 2024
With over a decade of experience as a trusted family law attorney, mediator, and collaborative professional in the St. Louis area, Raza brings a wealth of knowledge and a unique perspective to this topic. As the oldest child of immigrant parents, she understands firsthand the challenges families face when confronting cultural differences during highly sensitive legal matters like divorce and child custody disputes.
“Cultural backgrounds and traditions play a significant role in how families approach parenting,” said Raza. “It’s crucial for attorneys, judges, guardians, and other professionals in the family court system to educate themselves on various cultural aspects and remain open-minded when working with families from diverse backgrounds. This understanding allows us to craft parenting plans that not only comply with the law but also respect and embrace each family’s cultural identity.”
During her presentation, Raza will share insights on how to identify and avoid biases, facilitate open dialogues between parents with differing views, and develop custody solutions that prioritize the best interests of the children while honoring each family’s cultural heritage.
Her compassionate yet practical approach has earned her a reputation as a trusted advocate and problem-solver in the St. Louis legal community.
The “Advanced Family Law Child Custody” CLE program will take place on April 18, 2024, at the offices of Husch Blackwell in Clayton, Missouri. Raza’s session, “Culture Factors to Consider in Custody Cases,” is scheduled from 3:00 PM to 3:50 PM. Attendees can expect an engaging and informative presentation that will provide valuable insights for navigating cultural considerations in family law matters.
