For 34 years, this is the book Californians have turned to when facing divorce. Written by Ed Sherman, the acknowledged expert in the field, How to Do Your Own Divorce in California has been an industry success story not only because the information is current and reliable, but also because it has resulted in 60 percent of the state's divorces going through the courts without the help of attorneys, saving literally billions in legal fees.

Part two covers the court process step-by-step - how to complete all of the forms and file them with the court clerk; the waiting periods to expect between steps; how to get through the court appearance or even avoid it altogether; and more. This classic guide comes with a CDROM and resouces, as well as blank tear-out copies of all the court forms needed for an uncontested dissolution.

Based upon interviews with judges, lawyers, and divorced persons in California, and data collected from that state#x19;s court dockets, this volume presents the first systematic examination of the social and economic effects of divorce law reform. Sociologist Weitzman concludes that while the abolition of grounds, fault, and consent has eliminated much of the acrimony previously associated with divorce proceedings, this, together with the institution of gender-neutral standards for property awards and child support, has resulted in increased economic hardship and social dislocation for divorced women and dependent children. Weitzman does not intend to extrapolate her data, conclusions, and recommendations to the whole country; however, it is reasonable to believe that they have national implications.

This is a comprehensive California family law book and THERE IS A COMPANION WORKBOOK. The California family law book contains ONLY CURRENT California statutes, California caselaw and California rules of Court. Unlike other textbooks on this subject, ALL OUTDATED material has been removed. The statutes are the actual current California laws and they are presented throughout the book in bold print. The California Rules of Court provide essential information about family law forms and court room procedures, yet most textbooks contain very little about these rules. This CALIFORNIA FAMILY LAW book is different because many California Rules of Court are included. They are also presented throughout the book in bold print.The cases in each chapter are actual current cases. They provide judicial interpretation of the laws and key family law concepts in an easy to understand format. "The author's style and organizational technique make this book easy to read, as well as interesting." Hon. C. K. Goldsmith, Judge of the California Superior Court (retired). Almost every chapter has its own topic. And each chapter includes a brief summary of that chapter on the first page. Professors and students will appreciate this prudently constructed pedagogy. Judicial Council forms are essential in California family law and the Judicial Council is already preparing many INFO forms with completion instructions. While there are some forms included, this book discusses the different kinds of forms. California State Court Commissioner Alan B. Clements (Retired) said: "I'm utterly stunned with the thoroughness of the book. Your tenacity in drawing everything together is simply unmatched by any effort that I have seen within the family law umbrella. I would think that your book should be used in every classroom in the state of California. Of significant interest to me was your Chapter on discovery. With all of the discovery issues I heard while sitting on the bench, your analysis supersedes the P's and A's that I have read and makes discovery crystal clear." None of the other books on the market today provide all of this CURRENT information. This is the one California Family Law book to have in your library. This is the only California Family Law book you will need.
