The Family Law Handbook

A practical guide for people involved in – or contemplating – separation or divorce. Written in plain English, it explains the workings of the Australian system of family law – including the major changes implemented in 2006 – and guides the reader through both the choices and the practical tasks facing a separating couple. The book contains samples of court forms, letters and affidavits that can be adapted for an individual’s particular circumstances, and a comprehensive list of useful contacts and resources.
