The Family Law Communications Book has been published for separated parents to enable them to communicate with each other about the needs and wishes of their children and to exchange details of the important events that occur in the lives of their children which the other parent should know about.
Communications books that are set up by parents are often adhoc. They often go missing, pages are removed, changes are made. Some lawyers tell their client to photocopy the book each time it goes back to the other parent but how many of us have ready access to a photocopier?
The Family Law Communications Book is printed in triplicate with carbonless paper. When you make an entry, you tear out the top sheet and keep it for your record. The other party can use the remaining sheets to write a response or follow up and they tear out the second copy for their record. The third copy remains in the book as a permanent record. If the book is lost or stolen, each of you still have your record of what was written. The books are designed to be numbered by volume and each set of pages is also consecutively numbered from 1 through to 30, enough to do the average family for more than a year. The books are printed with a durable cover in A5 size so that fit easily into the children’s school or overnight bags.
