Family Law Reform Now 2021 Conference

If you could change one thing in family law, what would it be?

Speakers at our Family Law Reform Now conference in September 2021 presented and explored ten different answers to this question, showcasing important ideas for family law reform from across academia and legal practice.

Organised in collaboration with the Law Commission, all proposals received for the conference were provided to the Commission as consultation responses for its 14th Programme of Law Reform, as well as becoming part of an edited collection, to be published by Hart in 2024.
