Article summary

June 2016 highlights from the Lexis®PSL Family team. This month’s highlights include consideration of the impact of the UK vote to leave the European Union and the implications for family lawyers. We consider the amendments to various family court forms that were effective from 27 June 2016 in connection with the introduction of the 'Help with Fees' online service, and the Court of Appeal’s views on children’s participation in proceedings. We also review recent decisions on parents secretly recording their children, and best practice for local authorities seeking the removal of a child soon after birth. In addition to links to analysis of other key decisions (as well as those of interest from other practice areas), we also detail recently updated and new content in Lexis®PSL Family.
