A review of a wide-ranging and practical workshop designed to help mediators prepare for a changing world, with more and more cases involving international families or religious issues

Families come “in all shapes and sizes” and the law is constantly evolving to respond to changing circumstances. This workshop at the Dispute Resolution Conference 2018 ran through some of the key developments and Mary Raymont reports back on it.

Almost always, problems are best solved when people talk. But sometimes you need a helping hand. When relationships end or there are disagreements, emotions can run high and talking face-to-face can seem like the hardest thing to do. Sometimes you need help to get the talking started and focus on what really matters to you and your family. That’s where mediation comes in.

The Dispute Resolution committee works across all areas of family dispute resolution, leading innovation in process and practice.
