Fundamentals of Family Law
CPD accredited workshop
A CPD-accredited training programme in the fundamentals of family law, designed for professionals who support families through separation, divorce, and domestic abuse, but who aren't lawyers themselves. Delivered to charities, churches, schools, and professional teams, the training is built around real case studies and gives your team the confidence to recognise legal issues accurately, and the clarity to know what falls inside (and outside) their role.
This course is highly recommended for:
Charities and support services working with survivors of domestic abuse
Churches and faith organisations
IDVAs, Beacon Co-ordinators and other frontline support roles
Therapists, divorce coaches and mediators
Financial advisors working with separating clients
GPs and school staff who encounter family breakdown in their work
Training is delivered in person and takes place over half a day (2.5-3 hours), covering 6 modules, including case studies.
“Such useful training! Today will enable my team to focus more clearly on what they can do to support survivors through the court process. Engaging training and informative too” - Bekah Legg, CEO, Restored
Fundamentals of Family Law
Introductory workshop
Family Law training for individuals and small groups of up to five people. This 60–90 minute session covers the basics of family law and the court process, dispelling common myths and setting out the processes and timeframes you're likely to encounter, so you're better placed to support the individuals and families you work with.
The session runs as an informal discussion, and can focus on a particular topic if that's more useful for your team. Your trainer stays available for questions for a period afterwards.
