Mosten Collaborative Divorce Handbook Helping families without going to court Praise for Collaborative Divorce Handbook "There are many roads to peace. Whether you engage in collaborative practice, which by definition includes the provision that professionals will not represent the parties in litigation, or some other process for respectful conflict resolution, you will find Collaborative Divorce Handbook to be an invaluable resource for deepening your understanding and enhancing your skills as a peacemaker." Talia L. Katz, JD, executive director, International Academy of Collaborative Professionals "Collaborative lawyering is a promising new way of resolving disputes through joint problem solving rather than adversary litigation that has particular appeal for divorce cases. Whether you are a client who seeks to learn more about it or a lawyer using it who desires a wise guiding hand, this book is an invaluable resource." Frank E. A. Sander, Bussey Professor Emeritus, Harvard Law School "Written by one of the innovative thinkers in the field, Collaborative Divorce Handbook is a treasure of information for all professionals interested in collaborative divorce. Easy to read, expansive, and chock-full of resources, it is bound to become a classic." Constance Ahrons, PhD, author, The Good Divorce and We're Still Family, and professor emerita, University of Southern California "Family law is changing. As more people realize that the adversarial process is expensive, degrading, and stressful, they look for alternatives and find it in various forms of alternative dispute resolution. Woody Mosten is the nationally recognized leader of this movement, and his book on collaborative practice literally will be 'The Handbook' we will all follow." Garrett C.

Download or read book Home Will Never Be the Same Again written by Carol R. Hughes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adult children are often overlooked and forgotten when their parents divorce later in life, but in these pages they will find comfort and understanding for the many feelings, frustrations, and challenges they face. For more than two decades, a silent revolution has been occurring and creating a seismic shift in the American family and families in other countries. It has been unfolding without much comment, and its effects are being felt across three to four generations: more couples are divorcing later in life. Called the “gray divorce revolution,” the cultural phenomenon describes couples who divorce after the age of 50. Overlooked in the issues that affect couples divorcing later in in life are the adult children of divorcing parents. Their voices open this book, and they are the voices of men and women, 18 to 50 years old. Some of them are single; some are married. Some have children of their own. All of them are in different stages of shock, fear, and sudden, dramatic change. In Home Will Never Be the Same: A Guide for Adult Children of Gray Divorce, Carol Hughes and Bruce Fredenburg share their deep understanding gained during the innumerable hours they have spent with these women and men in their clinical practices. The result is a valuable resource for these too often forgotten adult children, many of whom find that, whenever they express their feelings and experiences, the most important people in their lives frequently ignore and dismiss them. As the divorce rate for older adults soars, so too does the number of adult children who are experiencing parental divorce. Yet, these adult children frequently say that they are the only ones who are aware of what they are going through, no one understands what they are experiencing, and they feel painfully alone.

Download or read book California Family Law 2021 Edition written by L. W. Greenberg and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-02 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive California family law book and THERE IS A COMPANION WORKBOOK. The California family law book contains ONLY CURRENT California statutes, California caselaw and California rules of Court. Unlike other textbooks on this subject, ALL OUTDATED material has been removed. The statutes are the actual current California laws and they are presented throughout the book in bold print. The California Rules of Court provide essential information about family law forms and court room procedures, yet most textbooks contain very little about these rules. This CALIFORNIA FAMILY LAW book is different because many California Rules of Court are included. They are also presented throughout the book in bold print.The cases in each chapter are actual current cases. They provide judicial interpretation of the laws and key family law concepts in an easy to understand format. "The author's style and organizational technique make this book easy to read, as well as interesting." Hon. C. K. Goldsmith, Judge of the California Superior Court (retired). Almost every chapter has its own topic. And each chapter includes a brief summary of that chapter on the first page. Professors and students will appreciate this prudently constructed pedagogy. Judicial Council forms are essential in California family law and the Judicial Council is already preparing many INFO forms with completion instructions. While there are some forms included, this book discusses the different kinds of forms. California State Court Commissioner Alan B. Clements (Retired) said: "I'm utterly stunned with the thoroughness of the book. Your tenacity in drawing everything together is simply unmatched by any effort that I have seen within the family law umbrella. I would think that your book should be used in every classroom in the state of California. Of significant interest to me was your Chapter on discovery. With all of the discovery issues I heard while sitting on the bench, your analysis supersedes the P's and A's that I have read and makes discovery crystal clear." None of the other books on the market today provide all of this CURRENT information. This is the one California Family Law book to have in your library. This is the only California Family Law book you will need.
Download or read book Keys to the Kingdom written by JUDGE HANK M. GOLDBERG and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of family law is complicated at best and antithetical to a "one size fits all" approach. When a family determines to move forward separately--dividing assets, finances, and determining child custody--there is always a high level of stress and oftentimes hostility, making successful case resolutions challenging to reach and mediation difficult to conduct. This is where experience and knowledge in the field is imperative. With a desire to assist those engaged in the practice of family law, both practitioners and judges, Judge Hank Goldberg has written a comprehensive and informative practical resource to address all major components of these cases, and guide professionals to successful outcomes. After six years of research and widespread utilization of these materials within the Los Angeles County family law courts, this book presents findings and conclusions that concisely identify the legal elements of California family law doctrines. Step by step analysis is provided for the resolution of these legal issues. The materials also contain model orders covering all major issues arising in courts on a daily basis and the legal authority for those orders. Of course, there are no jury instructions in family law; and this is probably why no systematic effort has been made to state California family law doctrines in a format similar to jury instructions, concisely yet with precision. Until now. This book can also be used to create discovery plans, plan direct and cross-examination, and to issue or stipulate to orders and judgments. It contains scripts for utilization by judges and attorneys in court and offers practice pointers and tips for litigation and settlement. For any attorney or judge engaged in family law within the State of California, this unique insiders' guide is an outstanding reference tool.
