In today’s episode, Bill and Megan talk with family law attorney, Michal Fein, of Tel Aviv, Israel, about a law she wrote to address some problematic issues in Israel’s family law system—the Family Disputes Settlement Law. They will discuss:
- what prompted the change and why it was needed
- what the Family Disputes Settlement Law was intended to do
- whether it was met with resistance and were there implementation challenges
- data at the two-year and six-year marks—did court applications (filings) increase, decrease or stay the same
- did the new law impact domestic violence, alienation, mediation and other divorce-related challenges
- whether the pandemic impacted divorce rates in Israel
- Michal’s hope for the future of family law in Israel
