9th May 2025

In the latest episode of Resolution’s award-winning podcast, Talking Family Law, Anita Mehta and Simon Blain are joined by Sir Jonathan Cohen KC (MCiArb) (now an arbitrator and private FDR Judge at 4PB) to discuss the last half century in family law.

Sir Jonathan discusses how family law has changed over time, recalling the humiliation of publicly heard divorces, and the seminal changes following the Children Act 1989 and White v White. He also talks about how delayed the system has become and the difficulty caused by the proliferation of cases without an equal increase in Judges.
