Experts tell us that almost 80% of couples meet each other online. And why not? It's incredibly easy to connect with people, near and far, without ever leaving your home. And it can be fun, and exciting, and of course, romantic. But you need to be cautious, because not everyone you encounter online is the person they claim to be. What are the best practices and pitfalls you should be aware of? Justice Brownstone and his expert guests will fill you in on what you need to know about the fascinating topic of internet dating.
Guests:

Andrew Feldstein - Family Law Lawyer
Andrew Feldstein graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1992. Prior to focusing exclusively on family law, Andrew's legal practice covered many different areas, including corporate commercial. One of Andrew's fundamental objectives is to achieve those goals mutually and collaboratively set out by him and his client.
In 2010, Andrew was honoured with an inaugural appointment to the Dispute Resolution Officer (DRO) Panel for Newmarket. This appointment was made by the Senior Family Justice for Ontario (The Honourable Madam Justice Mary J. Hatton) and the Regional Senior Judge for the Central East Judicial Region of Ontario (The Honourable Mr. Justice Michael Brown). Lawyers appointed to this panel function to support the family law court process by aiding couples in attempts to resolve their issues before their case proceeds before a judge. Andrew was selected for this appointment because of his vast experience with and successful ability to resolve complex family law issues using alternatives to the traditional court methods, including the collaborative family law process.
Andrew actively supports current law students, education and the legal profession by volunteering as a mentor for the Osgoode Hall Law School Mentor Program. He also acts as the Chair of the Articling Committee at Feldstein Family Law Group.
Andrew is also a member of the Law Society of Upper Canada, the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts, the York Region Law Association, the Newmarket working committee to improve court processes, and the Markham Board of Trade. In addition, Andrew is a regular writer for the Huffington Post and has been interviewed by numerous media outlets for his expertise in many family law matters.
