Writing in this week’s NLJ, David Burrows, solicitor advocate and NLJ columnist, surveys the main provisions in the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020, and rules made thereunder.

With a fine toothcomb, Burrows compares old with new, identifying some unfortunate gaps and omissions along the way.
