Title: Family mediation
Description: "Mediation provides an alternative to litigation in the courts to resolve family disputes and make arrangements about children, finances and other personal matters after separation or divorce. It is intended to reduce conflict and the time and costs involved, by helping families to reach long-lasting agreements in the best interests of all involved. Family mediators face many challenges in managing a wide range of conflicts on family matters. This book explores these challenges and evolving areas such as child consultation in mediation and the use of mediation in cross-border cases. Family Mediation is an authoritative and practical guide which not only explains the principles and process of family mediation but also places it in the context of a changing family justice system and its interaction with other professionals and processes. The text is supplemented by appendices containing key sample documentation. An essential publication not only for trainee and experienced family mediators but also for all family justice practitioners seeking to understand how family mediation works in practice." -- Publisher's information.
