A new book published in Bath aims to help separating parents. 101 Questions Answered About Separating with Children has been printed by Bath Publishing, and includes contributions from a number of expert family solicitors, barristers, mediators and other professionals.

The book covers the legal landscape, how to cope with the psychological impact of separation, what it means for children involved and where parents can get further help and support. Among the contributors is Senior Associate Sarah Wasaya, a member of Stone King’s Family & Mediation Team, who explained, “I was delighted to contribute to this book and think parents will find it provides some much-needed clarity at a difficult time.”

The book has three key themes to help parents resolve issues: improving relationship and communication skills; determining what is best for children; and understanding legal processes.

Rebecca Giraud, a Director of OnlyMums which aims to help families going through separation and divorce, added, “101 Questions Answered aims to clearly explain family law processes, answering the most common questions that separating parents ask with a degree of authority. We are delighted to have had Stone King share their expertise in this book.”

The President of the Family Division, the Rt Hon Sir Andrew McFarlane, has written the book’s foreword and said, “Irrespective of the current pressing problem that may have caused a parent to pick this book up, any reader would be well advised to invest the time in reading it from cover to cover, thereby gaining a real ‘feel’ for the approach of family law professionals and the courts in general to these important and difficult problems.”
