Advocacy In Family Proceedings
David Bedingfield
David Bedingfield explores the skills and rules of good advocacy and applies them to the range of family proceedings: ancillary relief claims; private and public law Children Act cases; injunction applications; abduction and adoption cases; and appeal hearings. This practical text is enlivened by numerous examples and incorporates the collective wisdom of dozens of family law judges, and leading barristers and solicitors, interviewed in the course of the research.

Divorce Poison
Dr Richard Warshak
The best book we’ve found which addresses
parental alienation. Don’t be put off by
the American title, this is the required handbook for separating parents, far
superior to the UK Ludwig Lowenstein book ‘Parental Alienation’. Worthwhile reading for all separated parents
with practical advice. It will enable
you to identify the warning signs and also to avoid inadvertently adopting some
of the alienating behaviour yourself.
Your child needs you to read this book.

Fathers Matter: A Guide to Contact After Divorce and Separation
Celia
Conrad
Part 1 (about one third of the book) deals with ‘Family Matters’ – e.g. the importance of fathers, dealing with your ex and so on. The remainder of the book is devoted to the law and court applications. The author was formerly a practising family law solicitor and she covers this thoroughly and accurately (unlike some books), packing in a great deal of information. There are many ordinary books covering this area – this one is worthwhile.
