Family Courts and Services Act

The Family Courts and Services Act (FCSA) is a law that aims to improve how courts handle family-related legal issues, such as divorce, child custody, and support matters. It establishes guidelines for family courts to ensure they provide fair and effective services. The Act promotes the use of mediation and other alternative dispute resolution methods to help families reach agreements outside of a courtroom, minimizing conflict and stress. Ultimately, the FCSA seeks to prioritize the well-being of children and families while ensuring that legal processes are accessible and efficient.
