About the Webinar

With the widespread use of home-recording devices, warring parties may be tempted to make secret recordings to support their case. But, when is it legal to make a recording without a person’s consent, and when will secret recordings be accepted as evidence in the Family Court? This session examines the legality and admissibility of these types of recordings in parenting matters, including:

  • Procedural challenges in admitting secret recordings as evidence
  • Determining ‘probative value’
  • The risk of admitting such evidence
  • Arguing against the admissibility of a recording – key issues to consider
  • Impact of the Evidence Act (Cth) and its interplay with family law proceedings
  • Surveillance issues – what is the position across the jurisdictions?
  • Lessons from recent cases
