14. Family Courts gets Award

Minnesota has had some success with Family Courts.

On April 23, 2009, the John F. Kennedy School at Harvard University honored an "early evaluation program for family law cases in the Hennepin County courts.  See here.

The "process paired parties to child custody disputes with skilled teams of evaluators early in the case to reduce conflicts and improve the prospects for a settlement acceptable to both parties. 

Settlement rates exceeded 70 percent in the more than 2,300 child custody and parenting time cases" in the first seven years.
