About this book

Without resorting to the "e;lawyers' language"e; that makes many books on family law difficult to understand for the non-lawyer, A Simple Guide to South African Family Law covers those aspects of family law most likely to affect the lives of ordinary people. It provides a "e;legal map"e; for individuals entering into - and terminating - marriages, civil unions and other domestic relationships; dealing with the children born of these relationships; coping with the difficulties of enforcing child and family support obligations; having to face the sad reality of the domestic violence which continues to plague our society; and making arrangements to distribute property after death. By arming readers with practical information about the content of their rights in this arena, and guiding them through the procedures necessary to protect and enforce those rights, the book will educate and empower ordinary people, thus helping to realise the promise of the Bill of Rights in their daily lives.
