Product Description

Bromley's Family Law remains the most authoritative textbook on the subject and has been used by generations of both students and practitioners as a reliable source of guidance. 2006 sees the publication of the tenth edition while 2007 marks the fiftieth anniversary of its original publication, and indeed the publication of the first textbook on family law. Both detailed and readable, this book offers the fullest consideration of new legislative and case law developments, and their impact on family law. The authors consider these developments alongside changes in practice, including the increasing emphasis placed on alternative dispute resolution, and the active involvement of children in legal proceedings affecting them. Particular attention is also paid to the influence of the European Union, which is becoming increasingly important for a full understanding of family law.

Customer Reviews

Extremely useful
I have been very pleased with Bromley's Family Law. I have found the information very clear and well organised. The topics are covered with an appropriate amount of detail - enough to form the basis of an essay, but no so much as to make it boring. Even those topics I was not that interested in were readable.

The relevance of caselaw to each topic was also well covered, as was the relevant legislation.

I would recommend this book to students of family law, as a reasonably detailed, but also interesting reference book.
