WHAT IS AN EXPERT FAMILY REPORT?
An expert family report is an independent assessment written by
a Family Consultant. A Family Consultant will explore all relevant
issues and conduct a thorough assessment of the family. Then, they
will make recommendations as to arrangements that will best meet
the interests of your child/ren. A family report is all about your
child/ren and ensuring their interests are being looked after and
championed. It is not uncommon for the recommendations to motivate
parties to reach an agreement out of court, which saves a lot of
time, money and stress. If your matter does progress to a final
hearing, the family report will be admitted as evidence to aid the
court in coming to a decision.
