In this episode, we examined the various aspects of Family Mediation and its role in conflict resolution. We explored the similarities and differences between Family and General Mediation and the scope of matters covered under Family Mediation. We also discussed whether domestic violence can be mediated and the psychological impacts of power imbalances in Family Mediation.
Additionally, we provided an analysis of the legal enforceability of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, along with advice for potential users and those interested in people pursuing a career in family mediation. We also examined the future of International legal research via Podcasts, particularly in ADR or, in this case, Family Mediation. Finally, Susan revealed the various types of training her law firm (Forrest Woody Mosten) offers.

Pour moi-meme, I look forward to reading and reviewing the intriguing researched book ‘We’re Here to Help when Guardianship Goes Wrong’ by the award-winning investigative journalist and author Diane Dimond.
Excerpts from the Book’s Synopsis
‘The book examined the troubling concerns surrounding the guardianship/conservatorship system and its mishandling by the American legal system.’ “The state-run guardianship system, called conservatorship in some states, is largely unregulated, ill-understood, and increasingly populated by financially motivated predators. Just how the secretive world of guardianship works and its real-life effects remained a mystery to most until the very public case of pop star Britney Spears. It suddenly became clear that those conscripted into the system lose all their civil rights in the process. Currently, there are an estimated 1.5 to 2 million Americans under court control, but precise figures are not known as no government entity keeps track of citizens who have lost the right to determine their own fate.
Established in the late 1800s, the guardianship system was designed to assist the most vulnerable citizens: the elderly and the physically or intellectually disabled.”
Thought-provoking. Right? The first question that came to mind when I read the book’s synopsis was, ‘Can ( Appropriate / Alternative Dispute Resolution) provide a viable reform solution’?
You can share in the comment section, ‘What ADR book are you reading or looking forward to reading?’ Let us continue the conversation and spread the much-needed awareness about the benefits of Appropriate Dispute Resolution (ADR).
Author’s Bio
Dimond may be best known for breaking the story of child molestation allegations against singer Michael Jackson in late 1993 and again in 2003 and following the story through the entertainer’s criminal trial in 2005-Dimond’s book, “Be Careful Who You Love: Inside the Michael Jackson Case.”
