Many people need the services of a lawyer when purchasing a home, entering into a contract, writing a will, settling a neighborhood dispute or handing a traffic violation. Others work with lawyers to start, buy or sell a business or professional practices. However, many more may experience the need for legal services in the context of their family relationships. Therefore, there are laws that are unique to children and families. There are laws to guide children into adulthood or protect them from neglect. There are laws that facilitate marriages, adoptions, assisted conceptions and births. There are laws that govern the dissolution of marriages and the distribution of property. There are laws for determining custody and child and spousal support
