Family barristers, Jamil Mohammed and Christina Warner’s webinar series, The Family Law Breakfast Club has been shortlisted for the Lexis Nexis Family Law Awards 2024 for Family Law Innovation of the Year.

The webinar series established by Jamil and Christina in January 2024, was prompted by a pattern the pair spotted of junior practitioners, including trainees, paralegals, and caseworkers, asking questions about pivotal aspects of family practice and the impact on their cases. They noticed that after speaking with them, they felt more comfortable asking questions and wanted a barrister's view on how the case would play out in court. They aimed to create a space where "stupid doesn't exist" and launched the monthly seminar, "The Family Law Breakfast Club," which was designed to be comprehensive and user-friendly. The initiative aimed to build attendees' confidence and put client care and case management at the forefront of discussions. The club also aimed to bridge the gap between junior solicitor practitioners and barristers, removing the "barrier from BARRIstER."
