Divorce Coaching

Family Mediation Scotland has organised a training session for lawyers lead by the American divorce coach, Christina McGhee. According to the Law Society of Scotland's Journal this will be followed by a pilot of parent education classes and it is hoped family lawyers will encourage separating parents to attend in order to minimise conflict and its detrimental effects on children.

The Scottish Collaborative Family Law Group wants to see the introduction of parenting classes in all divorces involving children along with other forms of alternative dispute resolution.
