Family litigation can destroy the lives of parents and children. It was a pleasure to help one parent gain the orders he sought for his vulnerable son (and recover his costs of doing so).

[1GC Family Law @1GCFamilyLaw]

Beth Hibbert represented the respondent father in an application by the mother to vary a child arrangements order. The court dismissed the mother’s application and made a barring order against her. The court awarded the father 100% of his costs, 65% to be paid by the mother and 35% to be paid by her solicitors under a wasted costs order.

@Aaqib__Javed Haha, no. It was a legal advisor sitting alone. The only direction they can make without the consent of both sides seems to be reallocation (and thank God for that)

[Beth Hibbert @BethHibbert]

At the second hearings before a Legal Advisor she explains that magistrates are not able to deal with applications regarding international travel. Why was this not dealt with on allocation? How much time, money and stress will be wasted before this inefficient system is amended?

[Beth Hibbert @BethHibbert]

@Maddie__Whelan2 @MalvikaJaganmo1 I can't believe you haven't watched Season 2 of The Spilt.

[Beth Hibbert @BethHibbert]

Insightful, intelligent, important discussion as usual from @MalvikaJaganmo1 and @Maddie__Whelan2 , this time in relation to the discriminatory effect of the HFEA.

[Professionally Embarrassing @PEmbarrassing]

1/2 Pop our latest ep in the queue for the car journey to court or the early morning dog walk. We talk about termination of a Children’s Guardian’s appointment; whether s54 of the HFEA is in need of dire reform to better support non-traditional families…

[Beth Hibbert @BethHibbert]

It was a pleasure to work on this interesting and complex surrogacy case. This judgment demonstrates how courts are stretching the HFEA s54 factors in order to grant parental orders where it is in a child's best interests to do so.

[1GC Family Law @1GCFamilyLaw]

Marlene Cayoun and Beth Hibbert (@BethHibbert) acted for the applicant mother in Z (A Child) (Surrogacy) [2022] EWFC 18, proceedings concerning an application for a parental order in respect of a child born by surrogacy in Georgia in 2017.
