Family law is a broad area that deals with legal issues ranging from step-parent adoption to divorce to the termination of parental rights to post-divorce modifications of existing court orders. Likewise, the people and families who are faced with these problems can be equally varied. Some families are traditional; some are non-traditional. Each of them, however, is different from the next.
