Law Jobs
A family attorney is a person who deals with all aspects of family
relations. Interviewing each family member involved, or mediate for
families so agreements can be made in an amiable or restructuring
way, forms an important part of a family attorney's work profile.
Attorneys need to know thoroughly the individuals and their family
histories. Divorce lawyers are the most common family attorneys.
Child support claims and those stipulations, custody and who gets
custody, visitation and length of visitation are some other areas
of family attorneys.
A family law attorney represents its clients in various issues
including adoption proceedings, rights of fathers, mothers, and the
different statutes of each state, paternity and how it is
determined, domestic abuse charges, who was abused, spousal abuse,
child abuse, sexual abuse and the court's rulings, annulments of
marriages and what are considered voidable marriages, etc. Issues
related to domestic violence, elder law, juvenile law, probate,
etc. can also be handled by them. Family Law comes under Civil Law.
Personal relationships are governed by state law, and hence "family
law" may vary from state to state. Family law courts hear cases
related to dissolution of marriage, nullity of marriage, separation
of the parties, child custody, child and spousal support, elder law
legal issues, domestic violence petitions, and other family related
legal issues. An attorney should have a J.D. degree and/or
LL.B./LL.M. degree. A particular State Bar license is required to
practice law. Family attorneys have the knowledge of specific laws
related to family matters.
