ALVES, Amanda Pansard et al. Family mediation: enabling dialogues about shared custody. Pesqui. prát. psicossociais [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.2, pp. 193-200. ISSN 1809-8908.

This article reports an experience resulting from an extension project, carried out in a Legal Aid Center of a higher education public institution. This project aims to work in family disputes using family mediation. This experience is illustrated by a situation in which the shared custody was established through mediation. Results demonstrated the importance of mediation in cases involving family conflicts, by enabling the use of dialogues in the construction of a solution. In addition to that, the importance of interdisciplinary practice in separation processes was verified, clarifying parents about the importance of maintaining the parental bonds after the dissolution, which was made possible through the recognition and establishment of the shared custody.

Keywords : marital separation; child custody; forensic psychology.
