Access to extensive and affordable continuing professional development and education programs aimed at promoting the highest technical standards among the national legal profession.

Committed to advancing the profession, the Family Law Section works efficiently with external stakeholders including elected representatives, policymakers, the courts, and government agencies to achieve this goal. The Section advocates recommend and respond to initiatives concerning legislative change and procedural reforms on behalf of members.

Two editions are produced annually, by the Section for its members. Leaders in their fields are engaged to provide engaging, up-to-date, relevant information to assist members in their day-to-day practice.

Compiled monthly and reviewed by the Section Executive, Case Update makes it easy for members to be on top of the need-to-know family law cases each month. This handy update is delivered directly to your inbox.

Members also have access to the full archive of Case Updates via the Member Library.

A fortnightly publication bringing you the need-to-know information within the profession. Cautious of not overloading members, and only delivering beneficial information, this curated member-only newsletter is a great resource.

The Duty List is a series of short videos developed by the Family Law Section. The Duty List will help members in these challenging times with information, case notes, and stories that will keep you and your practice educated, informed, and up to date. Hopefully, they will even entertain!
