Digital Dimension of Family Law
Training for Family Law Practitioners
Are digital issues being missed in your family law cases?
Technology can now sit behind child welfare concerns, coercive control, evidence and conflict between separated parents. Yet these issues rarely appear in a client’s initial instructions.
Questions about devices, location tracking, account access, online contact, screen time and digital boundaries across two households can simply go unadressed.
This session helps your team identify these issues earlier, ask better questions and recognise where further advice or billable work may be needed.
By the end of the session your team will :
- Understand how a child's online life can form part of the wider welfare picture
- Recognise how technology may be used for monitoring, tracking or coercive control
- Identify the digital trail that may exist across family law cases
- Recognise digital disputes that can develop between separated parents
- Know the practical questions to raise with clients, and when to raise them

What Could Your Team Be Missing?
Clients are already living with these issues. They just may not know and no one is asking.
A few examples:
A child is struggling between two homes.
Has anyone asked whether very different rules around phones, gaming, bedtime or online access are contributing?
A client describes controlling behaviour.
Has anyone asked about location sharing, shared accounts, passwords, device access or digital monitoring?
Parents are repeatedly in conflict.
Could disagreements around devices, screen time, social media or online contact be part of the problem?
A client brings text messages or screenshots as evidence.
What other digital information may be relevant?
If practitioners do not know to ask, these issues can remain invisible.
Identifying them earlier can strengthen client care and create further work around digital agreements, evidence, enforcement, child arrangements and digital boundaries between households.
What the Session Covers
The 1.5 hours training focuses on four areas that increasingly appear within family law cases:
Welfare
How a child’s online life connects to their wider health, development, safety and arrangements across two households.
Harm
How technology can be used for monitoring, tracking, restricting access and coercive control during and after separation.
Evidence
The digital trail across family cases, including messages, social media, location data and payment apps.
Conflict
Disagreements around devices, screen time, gaming, social media, parental controls and online access between separated parents.

The Business Case
This session can open up a new, ongoing stream of billable work.
Clients are already living with these issues. They just do not always have the language for them, and often no one is asking.
Digital agreement clauses, advice around devices and online access, digital evidence, disputes over screen time and enforcement when agreements break down can all require further legal advice.
This is real work that can remain invisible until the right questions are asked.
One session gives the whole team a reason, and a practical way, to start asking.
Working With Your Firm to Support Families
We can work alongside your firm to help separating or separated parents agree practical digital boundaries across two households.
This can include creating a Family Tech Agreement covering:
- Screen time and device use
- Bedtime and overnight phone rules
- Gaming and online spending
- Social media and apps
- Parental controls
- Location sharing
- Account and password boundaries
- Contact through devices
- Different digital rules across two households
The legal advice remains with your firm. Our role is to support the family with the practical digital arrangements that can otherwise become another source of conflict.
This gives your team an additional option when digital disagreements are affecting co-parenting, but do not necessarily need further legal escalation.
