Family Law Reform Now is a network of academics & practitioners committed to bettering family law. Led by @c_l_bendall and Dr. Rehana Parveen @bhamlaw.
Huge privilege last night to moderate a panel of wonderful speakers talking about experiences of cohabitation reform in Australia, Scotland, Ireland & elsewhere; the shape reform may take in E&W; & views of @ResFamilyLaw members & Cohab Cttee. So exciting that change is coming👏🏻
I, with @ReformFamily will be hosting a panel discussion @ForstersLLP’s Baker St office on Thurs 27 June re possible shapes of #cohabitationreform, with @gsf1996@DrAndyHayward & academics from Oz, Scotland & Ireland. Invitations coming shortly but do msg me if you want to attend
Given the research coming out of Scotland and Ireland, I’m increasingly leaning towards treating qualifying cohabitants like spouses. Mark is correct that differentiation is certainly tempting but it will cause delay, injustice and artificial distinctions. https://t.co/ezTQBLnbIY
