Brookers Family Law - Adult Relationships brings together the key New Zealand law governing personal relationships between adults.

As with other Family Law services from Thomson Reuters, the principal focus of this product is to provide practical guidance to family law practitioners.

Easy-to-find legislation is balanced with commentary on case law and how the Courts have applied the legislation, along with practical guides on the required processes and procedures for each of the subject areas. Bibliographies are also provided to guide users to further sources of information.

Section-by-section commentary to the main legislation examines its philosophical basis and issues arising in its interpretation. Users of Brookers Family Law Adult Relationships are also provided with a practical guide to accessing client counselling, the procedures for separation and dissolution of marriage, and the principles of spousal maintenance.
