What parties and the courts are seeking is not always compatible with what Parenting Experts are able to provide due to professional and ethical limitations. Additionally, Parenting Experts are not necessarily aware of the limitations of legal processes or what the Court is looking for. This presentation is an opportunity to highlight factors for consideration when counsel are looking to include Parenting Experts ("PE") and how PE's can be of most assistance.
