The authors have pulled together both the theoretical and practical into one book, answering every question about how to effectively practice law as a Peacemaker. The world needs more Peacemakers and this amazing book will help us do our best work." -Brian Galbraith, Collaborative Attorney, Mediator, Trainer, President of the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals, Barrie, Ontario (Canada) "With this book Mosten, Scully, and Traum provide everything legal practitioners need to expand the legal services they offer while at the same time improving their job satisfaction and financial bottom line. A fabulous resource." -Kevin R. Scudder, JD, Secretary, International Academy of Collaborative Professionals, Chair, Collaborative Law Committee, ABA Section of Dispute Resolution, Seattle, WA “In Effectively Representing Clients in Family Mediation, Woody ‘Forrest’ Mosten, Hon. Elizabeth Potter Scully, and Lara Traum draw on over a century of combined professional experience to offer an extraordinarily generous gift to the peacemakers (and future peacemakers) of the family law community. This book is a leading-edge treatise on both the art and science of enlightened family mediation. The authors start by placing the current state of mediation (as well collaboration and multi-disciplinary divorce work) in an evolutionary context. They go on to carefully deconstruct the process of successfully shepherding clients through the emotionally fraught, practically complex, and legally rigorous transition from one household to two—from our earliest contacts with clients through to the signing of their Agreement and beyond. Familiar ideas such as ‘unbundling’ are given new life. Less familiar concepts are skillfully introduced and integrated. Meticulously thorough and authoritative
