Kathy Boufford to Speak at the Working Women's Forum

The Working Women's Forum, an association of local professionals and entrepreneurs will feature,
"Mediation, Can It Work For Your Business?"

Kathy Boufford, part owner of her Newtown firm, Bellnot & Boufford, LLC has specialized in areas of family law and worker's compensation for the past seventeen years. Kathy received her BA degree from St. Anselm College in 1992, and her JD degree from the University of Quinnipiac in 1995. Currently she is serving as President of Newtown's BNI chapter, Flagpole Networkers BNI, and the Ladies Guild of her church. In her free time she plays and coaches soccer, assists with Boy Scout troops and enjoys outdoor activities together with her sons and husband.

She will explain what mediation is, and how it is different from litigation and arbitration. Attendees will discover why they might want to use it, and how it can work for them personally, or for their businesses. Kathy will also discuss special considerations for family law cases.
