Abstract: Self-regulation of emotions does not always come with maturity. Consultants can help educate. They can help litigants learn to better adapt, to communicate politely and succinctly, and to help give children stable homes and healthy choices. Should their artistry be disclosed in discovery? Should existing law be modified to mandate that if a consulting expert has been hired, that it is obligatory to reveal the existence of the consulting expert to the opposition? These are important issues for lawmakers to ponder.
