Seen But Not Really Heard? Testamentary Guardianship and the Conceptualisation of Children in English Law and Practice
This article explores how children are conceptualised when their parents appoint testamentary guardians as part of the will-making process. Although guardianship is a significant legal and practical status with the potential to impact very significantly on children’s lives, its essentially private nature ensures that little is known about it. Drawing on a series of interviews conducted with professional will-making practitioners, the article exam…

In their view, social organisations became…
The Street‐Level Response to Relationship Breakdown
In January 2001, the Government announced its intention to repeal the divorce reforms contained in the Family Law Act 1996. The ‘story’ of the Act is largely one of compromise: between a backward‐looking idealism, casting divorce law in the role of supporting marriage, and a more forward‐facing pragmatism, accepting the necessity of engaging with social reality. The result was legislation that sought both to save and end marriages – although a ke…
Setting a Standard or Reflecting Reality? The 'Role' of Divorce Law, and the Case of the Family Law Act 1996
In January of 2001 the British Government announced its intention to repeal Part II of the Family Law Act 1996. Originally scheduled for implementation in 2000, the Act provided for several fundamental changes to English divorce law, including the removal of matrimonial fault from the divorce process. This no‐fault process was, however, situated within a piece of legislation that explicitly declared its support for marriage, and which imposed a f…
