The importance of registering your marriage was highlighted at an event organised by the Muslim Women's Council (MWC) in Bradford last night.
The ‘Register Our Marriage’ (ROM) Roadshow was led by solicitor Aina Khan.
Women in unregistered marriages are left without rights in a British court of law, in the case of divorce and unregistered marriages are steadily rising in the Muslim community.
Aina Khan was joined on the panel by Neil Addison, a barrister at the New Bailey Chambers in Liverpool, and Siddique Patel, head of family department at Kamrans Solicitors, one of West Yorkshire’s leading criminal defence firms.
