Details

Appropriate Dispute Resolution (ADR) in Irish family law is a huge growth area which is being promoted both by government, at a policy level and by statute, and also by knowledgeable clients. The economic climate has facilitated a shift toward cost saving and non-court resolution options such as collaborative practice and mediation. The draft Mediation Bill 2012 provides that solicitors and barristers have a duty to provide information and advice on mediation.

Appropriate Dispute Resolution in Ireland is the first title on this topic devoted to the requirements of the Irish market and will assist family lawyers to embrace ADR as an integral part of their practice and educate family law clients on the workings and advantages of ADR.
