Family Law

Family Law is a branch of law that regulates marriage, divorce, child custody and care, alimony, property division, adoption, and other family-related matters. This field of law ensures individuals’ rights arising from social relationships such as marriage and plays a crucial role in regulating all legal issues within the family. While respecting individuals’ private lives, family law also governs the state’s intervention to maintain order in family relations. 

In family law disputes, Family Courts are responsible for handling cases. In places where there are no Family Courts, Civil Courts of First Instance handle these cases in the capacity of Family Courts. Hiring a lawyer for family law cases is not mandatory; however, the process is complex and strictly governed by procedural rules. Therefore, working with an expert family law attorney would be in your best interest.
