Making family law remote hearings accessible, fair and humane
The effects of the pandemic on the family justice system has meant the widespread expansion of family law hearings conducted by telephone and video link.
The Nuffield Family Justice Observatory has produced a webinar examining the impact of COVID-19 on family justice, particularly remote hearing using telephone or videoconferencing methods. One big consideration has been looking at which effective safeguards can be recommended to ensure that access to justice is maintained.
The webinar in full is available to view at the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory.
