Listen Later

Parklane Plowden family barristers Giorgia Sessi, Daniel Pitt and head of the Family team Julia Nelson discuss non-court based dispute resolution methods, something which
practitioners now have to advise clients to engage in meaningfully.

Together, they explore a range non-court dispute resolution methods, including private financial dispute resolution (FDR) and arbitration, as well as looking ahead to how AI is impacting the work of family lawyers.

Key questions covered include why legal practitioners should recommend a private FDR or arbitration, what type of cases they are most suitable for and what impact the speed and flexibility has compared to court-based hearings.

They also discuss how to maximise the effectiveness of private FDRs alongside issues such as cost implications, judge selection, how to handle parties who back out or who do not want to settle and ensuring neutrality during arbitrations.
