HHJ Roberts became Designated Family Judge for the Central Family Court in August 2020. This appointment follows a long, illustrious career in the judiciary, starting with an appointment as a Deputy District Judge in 1999; District Judge in 2001; Circuit Judge in 2012 and DFJ for Essex and Suffolk in 2014.

Vice-Chair of Women in Family Law, Simone McGrath, will speak to HHJ Roberts about the impact of COVID on the justice system; wellbeing in the courts and changes to wellbeing policies at the CFC under her watch; and the reality of life at the bench in the middle of a public health crisis.

This will no doubt be a valuable insight into the inner workings of our senior judiciary.

We encourage questions from attendees in advance of the event.

Please email admin@womeninfamilylaw.net if you have a particular question you wish to put to HHJ Roberts.
