@pr_doctor That sounds like a very difficult, painful situation for the father. We don’t know the circumstances of the case so it’s difficult to comment.

[Karen Wylie @karenwylie_law]

It says a lot about the calibre of @janys_scott of @westwaterstable that she has such a draw as a speaker to get nearly 180 tired lawyers out of bed on a Saturday morning for her Case Law Round Up seminar. Interesting, funny & very helpful. Thank you Janys! 👏🏻 #FLAConference2022

I was particularly pleased to hear that transfer of property orders and orders for payment of up to 6 months where there is serious financial hardship coming in the new bill.

[Karen Wylie @karenwylie_law]

Thank you to Kate Dowdalls KC of the @scotlawcom & Kirsty Malcolm KC of @westwaterstable who spoke to us regarding cohabitation reform in Scotland.

Law reform for cohabiting partners in E&W rejected. Interesting when Scotland has decided that our existing cohabitation law requires reform.

[Chris Longbottom @ChrisLongbottom]

A real shame. More is needed to protect cohabiting partners and children ⁦@CWFamilyLaw⁩

[Family Law Association Scotland @FamilyLawAssoc]

@ChrisLongbottom @CWFamilyLaw That’s interesting. The Scottish Law Commission has just reviewed our cohabitation laws and recommended they are improved and reformed. It’s surprising E&W has taken such a different view.

[Scottish Law Commission @scotlawcom]

Our Report on Cohabitation, including a draft Bill, is published today. The Report recommends reform of cohabitation law in Scotland, including claims for financial provision on separation. For Report and Summary go to: https://t.co/49EN2PH3Io.
