Family

What we do
Our role is to provide you with the information you need to deliver first class legal services to your clients. We write overviews to illustrate the headline points of each of our topics. We write KnowHow, in the form of detailed practice notes, to guide you through the key practical issues of each topic, and clearly drafted precedents with drafting notes.
To make it easy to find related items, we link these to the relevant
Butterworths commentary, consolidated legislation, cases and forms that we have selected for each topic. And every week we review and analyse legal developments and send you an update by email.

The LexisPSL way
We are experienced practitioners and are well aware of the daily time constraints on busy family lawyers. There are always awkward aspects of family law that are not so commonly encountered; areas which take time to research, which may not be fully chargeable to your client. Typically these arise in circumstances where time may be of the essence.
