As a student who wants to work for agencies to prevent crime on the internet, I wasn’t sure how much “Family Law and Practice: The Paralegal’s Guide” was going to do for me. It turned out to be an incredible resource, not only of how the system works, but also of the workings of families in suboptimal conditions.
I could have done without the “Figures,” which were mostly illustrations and seldom court forms; but on the whole, the book was well-written and obviously well-researched.
This book seems to portray very realistically family breakdown AND how the attorney and paralegal fit in. If “Family Law and Practice: The Paralegal’s Guide” isn’t a part of every business school’s paralegal program, it should be. I got a LOT out of the course, and might not have if it hadn’t been for the wonderful text.

This is a wonderful book for both students and people interested in family law. It covers everything from the history of family law to current events, such as Roseanne and Tom Arnold’s marriage. The cases are more like soap operas than the dry cases one usually associates with law. These cases will inspire great conversation in the classroom and will hold the students’ interest from start to finish.
