The role of the law in settling family disputes has been a matter
of particular debate over the past twenty-five years. In keeping
with the general public perception, the media has been largely
critical about the role of lawyers in family law matters,
sustaining a general lack of confidence in the legal profession,
and a more specific feeling that in family matters lawyers
aggravate conflict or even represent a female conspiracy. The
climate in which family lawyers practise in England and Wales is
therefore a harsh one. The authors of this path-breaking study felt
it was time to find out more about the contribution of barristers
in family law cases. They therefore embarked on a careful study of
the Family Law Bar, its characteristics, what its members do, and
how their activities contribute to the management or resolution of
family disputes. Much of the study is comprised of an in-depth
examination of the day-to-day activity of members of the family law
bar through observation of individual barristers as they performed
their role in the context of a court hearing, In attempting to
answer questions such as whether our family justice system is
excessively adversarial, or whether family barristers earn too much
from human unhappiness, or indeed whether those working in the
front line of child protection earn enough, the authors reach some
surprising conclusions.'The barrister is both mentor and guide for
the client' is how they begin their conclusion; 'we hope that we
have shown that society should value their contribution better' is
how they finish.
