Please do consider voting for @LoizouLucy for election to Resolution’s National Committee. As founding member of National YRes and buckets of experience keeping us all in check at iFLG I know she’ll make an enormous positive contribution if elected.
On Monday next week significant amendments to the FPR come into effect. 29 April 2024 could be a landmark moment for NCDR. No longer to be seen as an ‘alternative’ to litigation, but the first, and for many only, port of call. #NCDR#mediation#arbitration#evaluation

If you’re preparing for pupillage interviews this year do come along - if only to watch me back in the hot seat after 5 years and being reminded myself that interviews can be daunting!
Animal protection can get very academic when it’s all case papers, legal textbooks and codes of practice.
Nice to spend a day getting hands on - volunteering with mucking out the pig pens and feeding the animals - at FRIEND farm animal sanctuary in Kent.
TK v AC (Re Matrimonial Causes Act 1973) [2023] EWHC 2958 (Fam) (10 November 2023):
