Shawn Weber’s Interview on San Diego KPBS Radio’s Midday Edition: San Diego County Court budget cuts will affect family law cases

In addition to the T.V. interview cited here, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with KPBS Radio’s Maureen Cavanaugh on Monday December 3.  We were able to get into a lot more depth than the TV interview about the budget crisis facing the San Diego Family Courts and the importance of no-court alternatives for family law litigants such as mediation or collaborative divorce.

I was pleased to take part in an interview on San Diego’s KPBS TV’s “Evening Edition” on behalf of the Collaborative Family Law Group of San Diego.  The subject of the interview involved the budget cuts affecting the family courts in San Diego and why families and parties going through family law litigation should consider no-court options such as mediation or collaborative divorce.  The host, Peggy Pico, was delightful.  It was a lot of fun and I look forward to more opportunities to explain why out-of-court options are so important.

Disastrous cuts in the San Diego Superior Court: Another reason to choose an out-of court option.

Family Court Budget Cuts San Diego Superior Court

There’s a new press release on the San Diego Superior Court homepage relating to the deep budget cuts the courts are facing as a result of the current California budget problems.  Honestly, the cuts to the San Diego Superior Court are huge and my family law colleagues are all abuzz about them.  No one has thrown themselves out of a building yet, but one thing is clear:  The already inefficient family court system in San Diego Superior Court is about to get much less efficient.  (I call it divorce at the DMV.)

As a result, my advice to folks facing an interaction with the family courts is to think twice.  There are wonderful no-court options for people facing a divorce, family law case, custody battle, etc. —  such as mediation or collaborative divorce.

At Weber Dispute Resolution, we provide many out-of-court options for people caught up in a family law dispute.  For a free telephone consulation, call us at 858-410-0144.  We can help avoid the nightmare that is the family court.
