    Abstract

    The compulsory dispute resolution requirements in family law parenting cases create new roles and obligations for both lawyers and family dispute resolution (FDR) practitioners. This article will discuss how the legislative
    provisions impact on both sets of professionals in practice. It will also highlight the increased non-adversarial role of lawyers and a new role for
    FDR practitioners as “gatekeepers” to family courts in cases requiring FDR certificates.
