The Family Court without a Lawyer is the book you need if you have to go to court to sort out issues over separation, money or children and do not have a lawyer to represent you. Since publication of the 1st edition in 2011 this book has helped tens of thousands of people better handle the stresses of going to court about disputes around money and children.
The 4th edition - due for publication in June 2022 - is being fully updated to reflect the new no-fault divorce laws coming into operation on 6th April 2022, important new law and guidance relating to domestic abuse, plus the many other changes in practice since the 3rd edition.
Lucy Reed is a barrister specialising in family law, and a legal writer. She has distilled the knowledge and expertise gained from representing clients in court over two decades to write the essential guide to the Family Court for the non-lawyer. In clear language she provides a thorough guide to the law that you will need to know, plus countless tips and insights on how you should best prepare and present your case such as:
what to expect and where to go when you turn up at the court
what to think about when deciding to question a witness
how to challenge a judge's decision through an appeal
clear explanations of legal terms, jargon and concepts
All this practical advice and support makes The Family Court without a Lawyer much more than just a DIY divorce book. It is a practical tool to help you in court and a reference to help you understand what happens in the Family Court, whether or not you have a lawyer.
The Family Court without a Lawyer is also useful if you are supporting someone through the court process, if you have a lawyer but want to gain a better understanding of what is going on in your case, or if you are considering what your options are before going to court.
