A rung above the rest: the best family lawyers

In his speech at the International Family Law Conference 2016 in Singapore, Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon emphasised that family law interventions should be placatory and intended to help the families reduce contentions. Instead of focusing on the delivery of substantive and procedural justice alone, he stressed that there should also be restorative and therapeutic justice in the process.

But why is what makes family law so different?

Speaking to family law practitioners at another setting, the Chief Justice reminded them that the nature of family disputes is differs from regular commercial litigation: family disputes do not necessarily resolve get resolved just because a court verdict declares which party is at fault and how much they ought to pay. Often times, animosity between the parties heightens and the relationship between them irrevocably breaks down, leaving painful emotional scars from the litigation battle.

Therefore, the nature of family law disputes and emotional complexities intertwined involved makes it imperative that the best family lawyer is one who is able to navigate the family towards an amicable settlement that leaves both sides in feeling like they’ve reached in a win-win situation. 

Given the adversarial nature of our common law litigation system, this can prove difficult, especially when clients, in their state of emotional stress, instruct lawyers to include certain details. Unsurprisingly, this may lead to sparking a the rise of new disagreements. Granted, this may be critical in clinching a better position for one’s client, but the emotional impact of the disagreement can run deep within the parties concerned.  

Although difficult, a good family lawyer goes  will always go beyond his/her calling to help families embark on a more positive and healing path to healing. Even if he/she is unable to completely resolve the deeper issues, he/she will always try to persuade both sides to settle on agreeable compromises instead of invoking more arguments.

Second Law Minister Ms. Indranee Rajah even went a step further to say that family lawyers must be prepared to play multiple roles, including “serving as peacemakers, problem solvers and even at times, counsellors”.
