註釋This text, now in its sixth edition, is a must have for family law lawyers and other mediation professionals dealing with families facing separation and divorce, including mental health professionals, financial specialists, clergy, educators and judges. Less than 2% of families resolve their family law issues in court, so they need alternative processes that encourage cooperative, timely and cost effective resolutions: this book discusses each of these processes in depth and helps family law professionals and their clients choose which process is best for them. These processes aim to: help parties select the most appropriate process for their family, position parties as collaborators instead of adversaries, give parties control to create their own process and results, [and] significantly reduce conflict time and cost of litigation. Discover how and when to implement four new processes: mediation-arbitration, where a mediator can be asked to be the arbitrator for unresolved issues, arbitration, in which parties delegate decision making to a professional of their choice, while preserving certain appeal rights, custody assessment, in which a mental health professional makes a parenting plan recommendation to the parties and/or a judge, [and] parenting coordination, that allows a mental health professional to decide day-to-day issues for high-conflict couples following an agreement, order, or award. This edition includes the latest developments in mediation and collaborative practice, and a chapter on the Training Requirements and Rules of Professional Conduct for mediators, collaborative lawyers, and arbitrators. Coverage also includes the critical topic of Domestic Violence and Screening. The book also provides extensive samples and precedents of every process that is discussed.
