Resolution also campaigns for improvements to the family justice system.

    Resolution members adhere to a code of practice which sets out out the principles of a non-confrontational approach to family law matters. The principles of the code are widely recognised and have been adopted by the Law Society as recommended good practice for all family lawyers.

    The code requires lawyers to deal with one another in a civilised way and to encourage their clients to put their differences aside and reach fair agreement.
