September 11, 2023 The Law Commission's Review on Financial Remedies
Join Jennifer Lee of Pump Court and star guest, Professor David Hodson OBE, KC (Hons) MCIArb, joint co-founder and senior partner at The International Family Law Group, for a thought-provoking podcast on the Law Commission's review of the laws which determine financial provision on divorce or the ending of a civil partnership.

The Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 Act is now 50 years old. Are there problems with the current framework which require reform? What might the options be?
