People are often shocked to discover that privacy is not guaranteed to litigants in the Family Court. There is a tricky balance to be struck between allowing families the right to resolve difficult issues away from prying eyes, and also ensuring that justice is seen to be done. Even family lawyers don’t always agree on what the best approach should be.
But the good news is, there are plenty of alternatives to court, which CAN still be kept entirely private – like your good friends at The Divorce Surgery for example! So if privacy is an issue for you and your family, then that is yet another reason to avoid the courts if at all possible.
