This book is about those who represent themselves as Litigants in
Person in the family justice system. It calls for a refocusing of
the debate about the historical challenges associated with
Litigants in Person as well as the role they should play within the
family justice system in England and Wales. Drawing together
interviews with Litigants in Person and decades of research into
self-representation from across multiple jurisdictions, this book
provides an account of the family justice system through the eyes
of its users. It employs an innovative socio-legal framework
comprising feminist theory, a Bourdieusian theory of class,
vulnerability theory, and actor-network theory to explore the
journey that Litigants in Person take through the legal, cultural
and social context of the family court. It provides fresh insight
into the diverse challenges that people face within this process
and how these relate to wider pressures within the family justice
system. It argues that there are important lessons to be learned
from Litigants in Person. By understanding how and why people come
to the point of self-representing, and the kinds of experiences
they have when they do, the book advocates the importance of
forging a more positive and effective relationship between
Litigants in Person and the family justice system.
