Why getting legal representation is important
Filed Under (Family Law) by Admin on 19-10-2015
When families go through problems that involve the law, it can be expensive since the withdrawal of legal aid. This can be one of the factors that put people off using legal services. More and more people are going through issues like divorce, injunctions and children matters, and it can be emotionally draining, especially if each person requires legal representation.
Inside the court
The most senior judge in Bristol, His Honour Stephen Wildblood QC, found that 80% of private family law cases involved one party without legal representation who were handling their case themselves. To represent yourself in a family law case can seem like a less expensive option, but it can also take more time, as parents and family members have other commitments that detract from the time they could spend on their own case. A lack of legal knowledge, and the complex processes and procedures of the court room can also add to the frustration and actually lengthen the legal process considerably. It can also adversely affect the outcome of the case.
