Good Divorce Week

Good Divorce Week is an initiative that takes place annually when Resolution campaign on an important issue relating to families. Resolution is a community of professionals committed to assisting clients in resolving family disputes in a constructive and non-confrontational way.

The theme for this year’s Good Divorce Week is “Parenting Through Separation”, and Resolution has produced a guide which provides information and support to co-parents to help them through the challenges that often arise during separation.

The guide provides insight into how children of different ages react to parents separating and advises parents on dealing with this. It also highlights the difficult emotions the adults may encounter when a relationship ends.

Helpfully, the guide lists the different ways that parents could attempt to resolve any disagreements relating to child arrangements, which are:

  1. Direct discussions
  2. Mediation
  3. Arbitration
  4. Court

Pippa Marshall is a member of Resolution and is committed to Good Divorce Week and to helping clients bring their disputes to an amicable conclusion in a non-confrontational way.

Contact Pippa today for advice and information.
