NLJ shines a spotlight on dispute resolution in family cases this week, with a double helping of writing on the topic
Hannah Gumbrill-Ward, solicitor at Winckworth Sherwood, explores the pros and cons of arbitration in family proceedings, and calls for a bigger role for arbitration.
Norman Hartnell, of The Family Law Company, discusses current delays in the family courts and advocates for greater use of mediation. He looks at what works and what doesn’t. While ‘not a silver bullet’, he argues mediation could help reduce the pressure and consequent delays.
