  • Essential listening for lawyers and clients

    Just finished the “Non-discloser” podcast. As with most podcasts, I was planning on listening to this as I was on the move. I then realised how useful the content was and so I stopped, went back to the beginning and took notes! Perfect length for a podcast and great content.

The Family Law Podcast - The ups and downs of family law

The Family Law Podcast - The ups and downs of family law
Q: How does a legal background enhance therapy for lawyers and clients?
Having been a family-law solicitor provides credibility and shared shorthand with clients, enabling therapists to set realistic expectations and build strong bonds, while still applying psychological techniques to navigate perverse dynamics and systemic delays in the legal system.
The Family Law Podcast - The ups and downs of family law
Q: What motivated the move from practicing family law to therapy and coaching?
The guest describes a mix of personal experiences, a desire for deeper impact, and the realization that understanding clients' emotional states required a different skill set, which ultimately led to training as a therapist and developing a practice that supports both lawyers and clients.
Pets on Divorce
Q: What role do pet-nups play, and how can they help couples?
Pet-nups formalize discussions about pet care, living arrangements, and financial responsibilities, ideally before or early in a relationship or separation. They provide a clear framework that can prevent disputes and reduce litigation.
Pets on Divorce
Q: What is the current legal position of pets in divorce proceedings, and why is reform needed?
Pets are treated as property rather than as welfare-dependent beings, which leads to inconsistent outcomes and emotionally stressful disputes. Reform is needed to introduce welfare-based criteria that reflect real-life attachments and to provide clearer guidance for judges.
