Domestic Violence Assessment for Family Law Mediators
It is imperative that mediators working in family law are able to determine if both parties are able to speak up for themselves without fear or intimidation, are able to negotiate in their own best interest (and the interest of their children) and can carry out and understand the consequences of any agreements they reach. Learn how to spot issues of concern in your next family law case with this informative online seminar.
Attorneys with intermediate practice experience who attend this program will better understand: how to assess if there are impediments that may render mediation an inappropriate option, including domestic violence, substance abuse, and mental illness; how to develop an effective mediation screening protocol for your practice; how to maintain a safe environment while navigating the broad spectrum of domestic violence; and how to ensure that the victim has the opportunity to be heard and participate in the final outcome of their family law matter.
