Following the recent overhaul of the family justice system and the resulting plethora of revised legislation, practice directions and guidance from the office of the President of the Family Division, this book provides an invaluable reference for the busy family practitioner.
The authors are two highly experienced family practitioners in different fields of family law, who have identified and collated the most useful guidance from their respective areas of expertise for other users of the single Family Court. They have concentrated on the key aspects of the recent and significant changes to enable the embattled practitioner to cope more easily in this rapidly changing legislative and procedural labyrinth.
The Single Family Court: A Practitioner’s Handbook contains practice directions, protocols, precedents and relevant case law. It offers a discerning selection of materials applicable to the single Family Court and provides essential guidance on a wide range of issues ranging from court etiquette to international child abduction.
