Divorce & The Menopause - What Every Family Law Litigator Needs to Know

Introduction

There have been dramatic changes over the last 5 years in society in relation to the understanding of and attitudes towards the menopause. It is essential that as litigators we understand issues that arise so that we can give the best advice, act pro-actively where needed, and optimise case preparation and client care. This is a rapidly developing area, and failure to stay up to date could be costly.
