About the Podcast

The significant changes to the Family Law Act have brought into sharp focus the best interests of the children and have removed the presumption of shared parental responsibility. This session will examine recent parenting cases under the new laws and provide guidance to practitioners on the impact of the changes and what the decisions tell us about the application of the new tests, including:

  • Are there any discernible trends?
  • Strategies for presenting evidence as to “best interests”
  • Does the approach to litigation need to be reconsidered?
  • How have the processes changed? Do family reports need to be updated? Are family report writers making different recommendations?
  • A guide to the way forward
