Appropriate Dispute Resolution

Guidance produced by the FJC

The FJC has produced guidance for people involved in cases going through the family courts as the courts will expect individuals to have considered mediation and other forms of dispute resolution before asking for a court order.

Papers commissioned by the FJC

In 2005 Vicky Leach, of the children’s charity NCH, produced a paper setting out the relationship between the FJC and family mediation and highlighting some of the challenges that require consideration and action.
