After the first removal of the gastric tube Constance said; "The Schiavo case does not belong in an adversarial, combative and war-like forum. These people are the core of our fabric as a society. They are a family. What have we done"



1. Why the Court System Doesn't Work for Family Disputes

2. Alternative Dispute Resolution Practices

3. New Family Collaborative Council



1. Why the Court Systems Doesn't Work for Family Disputes - Why should it be up to a Judge to decide your family's future Because a jury is not allowed, it boils down to two sides feuding in a family court in front of a judge. Look what happened to Michael Shiavo versus Terry's family - what a horrible mess for everyone involved! Let Constance tell you more about her experience viewing the first CT Scans in 2000 with Judge Greer. Will the autopsy tell us anything different Did anyone really win this case



2. Alternative Dispute Resolution Practices - As more families seek alternative ways to resolve issues outside of court, a new alternative dispute resolution movement is growing in popularity and practice. There are new forms for mediation, arbitration, collaboration and restorative justice. These new practices are being taught in Law Schools and practiced all over the country.



3. New Family Collaborative Council - Why not take this Alternative Dispute Resolution a step further by creating a Family Collaborative Council Let Constance d'Angelis share how she is recommending a team approach to keep the family peace. Why not let a council of experts get involved in settling family disputes In order to bring balance to a decision, families can consult a Psychologist, Medical team, and Lawyers in a reasonable mediation versus a court room war. This new approach could have saved the Schiavo's and Terri's family from years of agony from the start.



Can you remember back to the days when you needed to find fault to file for a divorce What were we thinking It's time to think outside the box and break a few more rules when it comes to settling family disputes.



Constance d'Angelis advocates a advanced changes in the legal system with respect to family and life/death matters. She recognizes the importance of contracting to set up a health care surrogate and to enforce 'end of life' wishes. But, more important is a legal system that requires a disparaging and divisive approach to solving disputes, whether the disagreements are about money, property or family - life or death.
