His study of the Essex County Court scheme will be of interest to all practitioners, especially those operating under the banner of the new CAFCASS.’ Professor Gwynn Davis, University of Bristol, UK 'This text provides valuable information on an emerging form of court-sanctioned mediation. Key concepts are clarified; related studies are presented, as are a number of significant facts and figures...this book has pertinent information that could benefit those interested in developing policies and methods for facilitating efficacious family mediation for the benefit of children and their disputing parents.'
