Family Law ToolkitFamily Law Toolkit

The new Family Law Toolkit is a quick reference guide that includes relevant statutes, caselaw, and supreme court rules. In clear, easy-to-follow terms, it walks you through the calculation of support and maintenance, education expenses, the equitable division of property, parentage issues, attorney fees, and so much more. It even includes a handy three-year calendar to reference. You’ll want a copy on your bookshelf, as well as in your briefcase.
