Who would benefit from Inside Family Law?
Though accessible and conversational for those separating, Inside Family Law is equally useful for family lawyers wanting to enrich their understanding of the perspectives of Judges, other professionals, and the clients they serve. Importantly, throughout Inside Family Law, Judges and other professionals also share their best tips for both family lawyers and also those navigating the system. There is also discussion of wider issues in family law, including ideas for reform. It also has relevance for any other professionals working in the area, or those working with families more broadly, as well as academics and those studying family law.
