Managing High Conflict People in Court
HCI Press (Verlag)
978-1-936268-01-6 (ISBN)
This booklet is specifically written for judges who handle family court cases. After hearing from judges that they need quick-reference books that don't take long to read, author Bill Eddy extracted the most relevant information from his popular book, "High Conflict People in Legal Disputes" and compiled it in this book, "Managing High Conflict People in Court."Bill Eddy is an author and international speaker to judges, lawyers, mediators, therapists and others on subjects relating to managing high-conflict people. As an Attorney, Mediator and Therapist for over 20 years, Bill continues to get this message out: that blaming others is increasing in societies around the globe; and that there's a pattern in this blaming behavior, driven by people with certain personalities - perhaps 15% of our society. Bill also believes that managing high conflict people can be achieved with more understanding, and and doing the opposite of what you feel like doing. This book specifically deals with how high conflict people appear in our court systems, and how these people can be managed successfully.While this book is designed to address family court cases, it is applicable to any type of legal case.
