“A negotiated solution supported by both parties will always be more satisfying than a court-imposed arrangement and offers a higher guarantee of proper implementation for the future. Certainly in a family context, preserving family relationships, it is important to first consider whether an amicable settlement is possible before taking further legal actions.”
