Mandatory Family Alternative Dispute Resolution in Alberta

Peter is experienced in family law alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and can help parties fulfil the court-mandated requirement to participate in an ADR process before their matter can be brought before the Court.

As a skilled ADR practitioner, Peter understands the impact parenting conflict and family violence can have on children and their development. As a result, he can also assist parties to meet the court-required ADR which must be completed before their family matter may proceed to Court.
