Note: website is in English, all material is in Danish due to the country the family lives in.

The Family Law House is a governmental body which handles all Familily Law cases in Denmark, before the cases go to the Family Court. In Danish this body is called Familieretshuset.

The workers are not judges, they are case handlers who should be specialist in the area.

For many years there have been issues with extreme long case handling duration, discrimination and illegal alienation of children.

A very concerning statement by the responsble Minister in 2024 summarizes it all and shows that the leadership in the country actively approves the misconduct:

"Er det mændene der taber i ligestillingen på familieretsområdet?"

"Absolut ja. - Ligesom det er kvinderne der taber på løn når vi taler om arbejdsmarkedet.

Familieretshuset spejler den skævhed der er i samfundet i det hele taget.

Det er mere end 90% af kvinderne som er bopælsforældre."
