The Family Law Section was organized in 1958 to improve the administration of justice in the field of family law. Well known but rapidly changing areas such as divorce, custody, adoption, alimony and support are within the scope of the Section ,as are emerging issues such as third-party parental rights, marital torts, federal and interstate legislation, mediation, and the complicated questions of paternity, perinatal drug addiction, bankruptcy to deprive divorcing spouses of property, and genetic engineering. Questions involved in family law have assumed wide social significance, attracting the attention of Congress. Many organizations seek to broaden even further the interest of Congress in matters involving child-snatching, support laws and procedures, tax considerations, and other areas of family law. Family law cases utilize more actual courtroom time than any other area of civil law, and we here at Galileo & Joseph are working constantly to keep its members fully informed about the continuing changes in family law.
