>>7606921>Were you threatened in a case? Threat in the sense of death threatA few years ago I was acting for the applicant in a financial remedy case and the respondent brought a knife through security. That was the worst I ever experienced, and it was indirect. I think i've been relatively lucky though. I don't have to work in some of the shitter family courts outside of the south-east. Feltham is about the most awful I have to deal with occasionally. At least they've stepped up security there now.
Fun fact, everyone who enters a family court in the UK has to drink from any liquids they carry so as to prove they're not carrying acid. That's how bad it's gotten.
