The Family Law Handbook, 4th edition, is a practical guide for people involved in or thinking about separation or divorce. Written in plain English, it explains the workings of the Australian system of family law and sets out the practical issues to be dealt with by a separating couple. The Family Law Handbook addresses not only how the family law system works, but all aspects of separation and the making of workable parenting, property and financial arrangements for a successful post-separation life, including: what to do immediately after separation ; how to negotiate with your former partner ; how family dispute resolution works ; making the best possible arrangements for children ; how to achieve a fair property settlement ; what happens at court and what each party, with or without a lawyer, should do. This book contains samples of parenting plan provisions, court orders, forms and affidavits that can be adapted for individual use, and a list of useful contacts and resources.

Globalisation, and the vast migrations of capital and labour that have accompanied it in recent decades, has transformed family law in once unimaginable ways. Families have been torn apart and new families have been created. Borders have become more porous, allowing adoptees and mail order brides to join new families and women fleeing domestic violence to escape from old ones. People of different nationalities marry, have children, and divorce, not necessarily in that order. They file suits in their respective home states or third states, demanding support, custody, and property. Otherwise law-abiding parents risk jail in desperate efforts to abduct their own children from foreign ex-spouses. The aim of this Handbook is to provide scholars, postgraduate students, judges, and practioners with a broad but authoritative review of current research in the area of International Family Law. The contributors reflect on a range of jurisdictions and legal traditions and their approaches vary. Each chapter has a distinct subject matter and was written by an author who was invited because of his or her expertise on that subject. This volume provides a valuable contribution to emerging understandings of the subject.

The Research Handbook on International Family Law brings together a carefully selected array of experts to address legal topics pertaining to family relationships in a cross-border context, and international family law disputes. It shows how this independent field of study has developed, and continues to develop, and adeptly surveys the practice and regulation of international family law. This Research Handbook presents critical perspectives on complex issues arising in the field of international family law. It adopts an international approach, considering a range of jurisdictions and perspectives, and shows that, as the number of international families increases, so too does the potential for cross-border, family law disputes. The Handbook provides a scholarly overview of current research in international family law, and the contributing authors offer critical analysis of topics such as legal parentage, intercountry adoption, habitual residence, parental responsibility, child and family relocation, international child abduction, forced marriage, and the financial and property consequences of adult relationships. This Research Handbook is an essential reference work for scholars and researchers of family law and private international law. Likewise, legal practitioners working in the international family law arena will benefit from this important resource due to its focus on research, policy and practice.
