Statute overview

About this statute

This division is named the Family Law Facilitator Act and may be cited by that name. The Legislature says the family law pilot project services should be made available to unrepresented parties in superior courts throughout California. Each superior court must maintain a family law facilitator office, and the superior court appoints the family law facilitator. This division applies to actions or proceedings about child support, spousal support, health insurance, child custody, or visitation in certain family-law cases. The family law facilitator must provide listed family-law help services, including educational materials, court forms, form assistance, support schedules, and referrals.
