Sir, - As the legal system will soon be overwhelmed by thousands of applications for divorce, might it not be a good idea to start setting up a special family-law, system instead of the present circuitous one? Perhaps there could be barristers specially trained in family law, to whom applications for divorce could be sent direct.
There are many mature and competent legal executives and secretaries who could do the groundwork, leaving the barrister free to present the case and thus avoiding the time-consuming, energy-wasting and costly present system. Systems can be changed as the need arises, and the need is there now. - Yours, etc.
