Family law governs the legal relationships that exist within a family. It provides a framework for managing some of lifeโs most personal and sensitive matters from marriage and separation to the care and protection of children. Its core purpose is to clearly define rights and responsibilities, resolve disputes fairly, and safeguard the best interests of all family members, particularly children.
