Campaigning for change

Resolution works to raise awareness of family law issues and the benefits of constructive and non-confrontational approaches to family disputes. All our policy and campaigns work is informed by the experiences of our members - family law practitioners - and their clients, and is driven by a network of member-led committees.

Resolution regularly campaigns on policy issues and you can get involved by supporting our campaigning, taking our surveys and helping to spread the word more widely. You’re also welcome to get involved in our annual Awareness Week, held the last week of November each year.

Many in England and Wales mistakenly believe that after living together for a certain amount of time or having children, they develop common-law status which gives them similar rights to married couples.
