Following the news the government is set to make #mediation sessions mandatory & offer funding support in an effort to divert cases away from under-pressure family courts, the @TheLawSociety's president chats to @SolicitorsJrnl about the potential risks involved. #familylaw

When thinking about divorce, sometimes it's hard to know who to turn to, we hope this might just help. Here's a little more information on the guidance & legal support we can offer https://t.co/FPkxDvJ9IX #familymediationweek #divorce #legal

We are calling upon the head of @HMCTSgovuk to take urgent action to improve the service for court users. https://t.co/f9rt5kfo49

We have been told @CEOofHMCTS cannot deal with our complaints or resolve the issue, but as Head of HMCTS Mr Goodwin is responsible for the service & should be able to improve the service for Court users. It cannot be right or fair that it takes over a year to list an application.

After persistently chasing we were told in May that the Court is dealing with a backlog & applications from Dec were being considered. How is this an acceptable delay? We raised complaints with the Court again in June, July & August, but our application has still not been issued

.@CEOofHMCTS we are extremely concerned that the Court has taken over 12 months so far to deal with an application we made in October 2021. The application has not yet been issued and we do not yet have a hearing date.
