In this week’s episode of A Lawyer and Mediator Walk into a Bar, we continue the conversation from last week’s episode, where we explored how children are included in the family mediation process. This week, we shift focus to the litigation side, examining how children are represented and their voices heard when family disputes go to court. Our hosts discuss the legal frameworks in place to protect children’s best interests and the various ways the court system involves them in the resolution of family law matters. Tune in for an insightful look at how litigation can impact families and the crucial role children play in the process. Whether you’re navigating family law or simply interested in how the system protects children, this episode provides essential insights into ensuring that children are properly considered throughout the process.
