Saposnek worries that parents consulting with attorneys during child custody mediation could do damage to the mediation process. He advises parents to steer clear of attorneys for advice surrounding those meetings involving child-related issues. Do you believe Saposnek is correct? Should the family mediator encourage the participant seek legal advice, or discourage the participant to seek legal advice during mediation? Why or why not?
