• Overview

The Family Court Practice is relied upon every day by solicitors, barristers, the judiciary and justices’ clerks, and its easy-to-follow procedural guides set the standards for all court handbooks. To complement this major work and ensure you are kept fully up to speed all year round on all the latest developments, we are pleased to announce the introduction of The Family Court Practice 2010 – Autumn Supplement.
