Family Law Scotland

Scottish Government working group on bar reporters

The Scottish Government is chairing a working group to examine the role of court reporters in cases involving contact and residence with children.  We will publish the group's draft terms of reference and the agenda of the first meeting shortly.

Family Matters

Family law in Scotland is a broad area of the law that covers topics such as: family

  • Marriage, civil partnership and cohabitation
  • What happens when a relationship ends
  • Relationships between parents and children
  • Inheritance and succession
  • Gender recognition

There are also useful links to other organisations that can provide information, advice, and support.
