In the 17 years since Family Law first published The Family Court Practice, the Red Book has gone from strength to strength. It is relied upon every day by solicitors, barristers, the judiciary and justices’ clerks, and its easy-to-follow procedural guides still set the standards for all court handbooks.

Covering the entire range of family business in every level of court, The Family Court Practice remains the acknowledged authority on practice and procedure.
