Book Synopsis Family Mediation by : Howard H. Irving
Download or read book Family Mediation written by Howard H. Irving and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 1995-07-19 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface by Hugh McIsaac Family mediation has quickly become a significant means of legal dispute resolution, recognized in most North American jurisdictions as a relief to already overburdened judicial systems. Using an innovative practical approach, the authors of Family Mediation incorporate the pivotal principles of family therapy into this new context--the judicial realm of family mediation. The practice model--therapeutic family mediation--thoroughly treats history, specific issues, and practice in an ecosystemic approach and responds to feminist critique of mediation. In addition, the authors offer important perspectives on mediating with multicultural populations and the role of the mediator in child custody disputes and child protection cases. Through examination of family mediation research as well as helpful case history vignettes, the authors of this volume take action to fill significant gaps between family therapy and mediation. Family Mediation provides a new take on family mediation that will benefit not only professionals and researchers in family studies, social work, clinical psychology, and sociology but also professional and volunteer mediators, conciliation court personnel, and family law specialists. "Family Mediation is an excellent blend of scholarship and practice, and it is the best of the books I have read on family mediation. First, it is clear and well written. Second, it provides an in-depth, current review of the divorce literature. The literature on divorce is large, uneven, and difficult to interpret. The authors have done a service to the profession by skillfully reviewing and integrating this literature." --Stephen J. Bahr, Brigham Young University "This book is one of the most comprehensive and well-researched texts on mediation to date. The authors have compiled an immense array of information regarding the history of family mediation, the practice and knowledge base, a review of literature regarding divorce, the principles of mediation, gender and cultural issues, elements in a child custody dispute, sharing parenting, cultural issues, and the use of mediation in dependency, and they include an excellent summary of research conducted. . . . Of particular value is the enormous scope of the review of literature and the work of others, not only in Canada but also the United States, Australia, and Great Britain, underscoring the international nature of this transformation. What Howard H. Irving and Michael Benjamin have done is chart a major shift in the handling of conflict and they have done it very well." --Family and Conciliation Courts Review "Howard H. Irving and Michael Benjamin have surveyed and summarized an immense amount of material within the covers of this volume, presenting it in a clear, readable style. It is one of the rare texts on mediation that does justice to the complexity of families generally and families in North America particularly--to their diversity of culture, to the scope of feminist thought and gender differences, and to the ranges of social class. Their attention to divergent forms of mediation and differences in practice across jurisdictions is broadly sighted. An excellent choice for a text in mediation." --Mary A. Duryee, Family Court Services, Alameda County, Oakland, CA "Howard H. Irving and Michael Benjamin grapple with what is the most difficult event that confronts almost half of all modern families--divorce. Historically, the developmental issues and problems surrounding divorce have been solved in the courts. But modern-day courts are overwhelmed by an avalanche of divorce cases, more than a million a year, and are unable to meet the needs of separating parties. Family Mediation offers a fundamentally different approach from the conventional legal system. The empirical research and clinical experience Irving and Benjamin bring to bear on this subject have resulted in the seminal work in this area. This delightful and thoughtful book is a must for the modern mediation practitioner who works with families and children." --Duncan Lindsey, Professor, UCLA, and Editor-in-Chief, Children and Youth Services Review "This book is unique in providing a complete overview of relevant subject areas for family mediation under one cover. Its writing is timely because it dispels some of the myths in the rapidly expanding field of family mediation. . . . Family Mediation is a comprehensive text that follows the development of family mediation through the present and concludes with the predictors of future directions. It is perhaps the most thorough critical review of the literature pertaining to family mediation and develops an inclusive practical model of practice for practitioners. The book is readable . . . responsible, and of interest to family mediators and the family law lawyers who work closely with them. It may become a must as a background for the novice family mediator about to embark on a course of training." --Laurel Pearson, McWhinney, Metcalfe, and Associates, Toronto, Canada
Book Synopsis Divorce Mediation by : John M. Haynes
Download or read book Divorce Mediation written by John M. Haynes and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1981 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Divorce mediation offers mental health professionals and lawyers an effective way to help couples dissolve their marriages, minimizing the frustration and animosity commonly associated with the adversarial process. The rapid growth of divorce mediation centers is evidence of the need for specially trained professionals who can continue working with clients once the decision to divorce is made. This handbook will enable clinical psychologists, counselors, clergy, and social workers to expand their practice into this important field. Lawyers also will find the book useful in relating to divorce clients and to mediators. The author presents a model for helping couples negotiate mutually beneficial separation agreements while coping emotionally with divorce. He demonstrates how a mediator helps resolve key issues concerning the division of personal and real property, support, children, and plans for the future. He gives step-by-step guidelines for moving through the mediation process and illustrates this with nine case studies. Also included are a discussion of the special problems of children of divorcing couples, and appendixes containing a manual for clients and sample separation agreements." -- Jacket.

Book Synopsis Divorce Mediation from the Inside Out by : Ora Schwartzberg

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are like most people who are going through a divorce, you would prefer to keep things civil -- especially if you have children. Unfortunately, even relatively friendly breakups can become acrimonious once the courts get involved.

Divorce Mediation from the Inside Out presents a better option for couples who want to get on with their lives. Speaking from years of experience as a divorce mediator, Ora Schwartzberg explains why mediation not only costs substantially less than going to court, but also results in more relevant, fair resolutions. If you want to divorce with dignity and develop a blueprint for a satisfying life after your marriage ends, this book will set you on the right path.

Book Synopsis The Handbook of Divorce Mediation by : L. Marlow
Download or read book The Handbook of Divorce Mediation written by L. Marlow and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mediation, as a procedure to assist couples in dealing with the problems incident to their separation and divorce, is still relatively new in the United States. For the would-be practitioner, that poses certain problems. Divorce mediation cannot provide a long history of generally accepted procedures. Nor is there even a body of information to which would-be practitioners can turn for instruction or guidance. And, of course, there are no established schools that can train or prepare a practitioner to do this work. To make matters worse, the situation is likely to remain in this state for some time to come. Given this fact, it was felt that it would be useful for practitioners (even for those already engaged in divorce mediation) to have a handbook which would trace a typical mediation from its inception to its conclusion and which would provide them with the substantive informa tion they need to know in order to do divorce mediation. It is hoped that this handbook will fill this need. Having said that, however, it must be acknowledged that the purpose of this book is very much beyond that. Until now, divorce mediation in the United States has been shaped principally by such books as O. J. Coogler's Structured Mediation in Divorce Settlements: A Handbook for Marital Mediators, 1 and John Haynes' Divorce Mediation: 2 A Practical Guide for Therapists and Counselors.
Book Synopsis A Common Sense, Practical Guide to Divorce in New York by : Lenard Marlow
Download or read book A Common Sense, Practical Guide to Divorce in New York written by Lenard Marlow and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The simple message of this book is that divorcing husbands and wives should not allow divorce lawyers to send them off on a fool’s errand that will take what is already a tragedy in their lives and turn it into a nightmare. That is when they are persuaded to employ the law as a weapon in a legal tug of war the object of which is simply to get as much as you can and to give as little as you have to. Rather, they should look to the law as a common framework that they can turn to in their effort to conclude an agreement and thereby get on with their lives. There is a name for this. It is called divorce mediation and it doesn’t take forever or cost a king’s ransom.
Book Synopsis Communication, Marital Dispute, and Divorce Mediation by : William A. Donohue
Download or read book Communication, Marital Dispute, and Divorce Mediation written by William A. Donohue and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-05 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few Americans escape the experience of divorce, either first-hand or through the dissolutions of marriages of friends or relatives. According to the author, mediation offers a good alternative to the strictly adversarial divorce process that was so prevalent before such programs began to emerge. Originally published in 1991, this book was unique at the time in that it not only explores the role of communication in divorce mediation, but it also presents original research to support its claims. A series of empirical studies, it points readers to a more focused set of recommendations about communication than the typical practitioner's "How-to" books. A simulation exercise is also included, so that readers can apply the concepts described and see the results. The main goal of this text is to provide mediators with a language for understanding their own and their disputants’ communication patterns, strategies, and tactics – a shortcoming of most other books on this topic when first published.
