What is family law?
Family law is simply a term to refer to the laws relating to family matters in England and Wales. Family law can seem a bit tricky from the outside as, where many areas of law concern objective authorities such as trade, commerce, employment etc., family law often involves private disputes or social decisions based on individual family dynamics. Family law covers but isn’t necessarily limited to:
- Divorce
- Finances
- Civil partnerships
- Arrangements regarding children
- Cohabitation agreements
- Domestic abuse
