In 2014, major reforms were made to the Family Justice System in New Zealand, shifting the focus from adversarial court resolution of parenting disputes to encouraging parents to reach agreement themselves where this is appropriate. This report evaluates whether reforms relating to the Care of Children Act (CoCA) proceedings have achieved their intended benefits. The main change involved providing services to resolve disputes which families could access without entering the court system: the Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) Service was created, and the Parenting Through Separation (PTS) service was expanded. The reforms also made self-representation mandatory in the early stages of most non-urgent applications to the court, and alongside the reforms a Family Legal Advice Service (FLAS) was also created. The evaluation finds that the number of CoCA related cases and applications to the courts have reduced since the reforms have been in place, and it appears likely that some of these cases have been resolved at Family Dispute Resolution as expected. However, there has been a noticeable increase in the proportion of applications that are filed without notice (urgently) and there has been no obvious shift in the demographics of people accessing Family Justice services following the reforms.

In many US courts and internationally, family law cases constitute almost half of the trial caseload. These matters include child abuse and neglect and juvenile delinquency, as well as divorce, custody, paternity, and other traditional family law issues. In this book, the authors argue that reforms to the family justice system are necessary to enable it to assist families and children effectively. The authors propose an approach that envisions the family court as a "care center," by blending existing theories surrounding court reform in family law with an ethic of care and narrative practice. Building on conceptual, procedural, and structural reforms of the past several decades, the authors define the concept of a unified family court created along interdisciplinary lines — a paradigm that is particularly well suited to inform the work of family courts. These prior reforms have contributed to enhancing the family justice system, as courts now can shape comprehensive outcomes designed to improve the lives of families and children by taking into account both their legal and non-legal needs. In doing so, courts can utilize each family’s story as a foundation to fashion a resolution of their unique issues. In the book, the authors aim to strengthen a court’s problem-solving capabilities by discussing how incorporating an ethic of care and appreciating the family narrative can add to the court’s effectiveness in responding to families and children. Creating the court as a care center, the authors conclude, should lie at the heart of how a family justice system operates. The authors are well-known figures in the area and have been involved in family court reform on both a US national and an international scale for many years.

The family justice system in England and Wales has undergone radical change over the past 20 years. A significant part of this shifting landscape has been an increasing emphasis on settling private family disputes out of court, which has been embraced by policy-makers, judges and practitioners alike and is promoted as an unqualified good. Mapping Paths to Family Justice: Resolving Family Disputes in Neoliberal Times examines the experiences of people taking part in out-of-court family dispute resolution in England and Wales. It addresses questions such as how participants’ experiences match up to the ideal; how recent changes to the legal system have affected people’s ability to access out-of-court dispute resolution; and what kind of outcomes are achieved in family dispute resolution. This book is the first study systematically to compare different forms of family dispute resolution. It explores people’s experiences of solicitor negotiations, mediation and collaborative law empirically by analyzing findings from a nationally representative survey, individual in-depth interviews with parties and practitioners, and recorded family dispute resolution processes. It considers these in the context of ongoing neoliberal reforms to the family justice system, drawing out conclusions and implications for policy and practice.

In 2014, major reforms were made to the Family Justice System in New Zealand, shifting the focus from adversarial court resolution of parenting disputes to encouraging parents to reach agreement themselves where this is appropriate. The main change of the reforms was a portfolio of services to resolve disputes that families could access without entering into the court system, known as out-of-court services, which included Family Dispute Resolution (FDR), the Parenting Through Separation (PTS) programme, and Family Legal Advice (FLAS). This review tracks a cohort of people who entered the Family Justice System after the reforms and evaluates the efficiency and effectiveness of in- and out-of-court services. It compares pre-and post-reforms cohort outcomes: specifically: the proportion of people on each pathway in the Family Justice System; the time taken for people to move through each pathway; and outcomes for people in each pathway. 15,727 people were followed. The analysis found that people were more likely to achieve a lasting outcome within a reasonable timeframe in the pre-reforms system. However, the post-reforms out-of-court pathway was most likely to see a lasting outcome when compared with the pre-reforms system and other post-reforms pathways.

Does a justice system have a welfare function? If so, where does the boundary lie between justice and welfare, and where can the necessary resources and expertise be found? In a time of austerity, medical emergency, and limited public funding, this book explores the role of the family justice system and asks whether it has a function beyond decision-making in dispute resolution. Might a family justice system even help to prevent or minimise conflict as well as resolving dispute when it arises? The book is divided into 4 parts, with contributions from 22 legal scholars working across Europe, Australia, Argentina and Canada. - Part 1 looks at what constitutes a family justice system in different jurisdictions, and how a welfare element is included in the legal framework. - Part 2 looks at those engaged with a family justice system as professionals and users, and explores how far private ordering is encouraged in different countries. - Part 3 looks at new ways of working within a family justice system and raises the question of whether the move towards privatisation derives from the intrinsic value of individual autonomy and acceptance of responsibility in family disputes, or whether it is also a response to the increasing burden on the state of providing a welfare-minded family justice system. - Part 4 explores recent major changes of direction for the family justice systems of Australia, Argentina, Turkey, Spain, and Germany.
