For anyone going through personal and family difficulties, it is important to have an understanding of what rights the child, parents, and other family members have, what are the procedures involved when a case goes to court, how does one apply for a court order in the first place, what other useful bodies/agencies can one turn to for help, etc.

If one is informed, the process can become a lot less daunting.

For these reasons, we strongly recommend that you contact your local FNF branch as soon as possible. The earlier in the proceedings you do so, the better chance you stand.

► New - The Collaborative Divorce

This is a novel method of trying to reach a quicker, stable outcome without involving the courts. It is often much cheaper than the traditional, lawyer/court system. It was invented by Stuart G. Webb and successfully pioneered in Minnesota, USA, by him and Ronald Ousky, both family law Attorneys. The collaborative law model puts the child(ren) at the heart of the dispute and focus on their best interests.

This system had just started to operate in the UK. For a list of solicitors who work in this way, click here and here.
