Focus: Family Law provides an ideal introduction to family law. In a landscape where two major amending Acts in 2023 and 2024 have made the most significant changes to the Family Law Act since 2006, this book contains clear explanations and analysis of the current law and its underlying policy, as well as a synopsis of the facts of, and excerpts from, the leading judgments in key family law cases. Problem questions at the end of each chapter provide the opportunity to apply the principles to hypothetical scenarios, encouraging discussion of the broader impact of family law. 

This tenth edition provides extensive discussion of the developments arising from the Family Law Amendment Act 2023 and Family Law Amendment Act 2024, including the codification of key decisions such as Rice & Asplund (1979) FLC 90-725 and Kennon v Kennon (1997) 139 FLR 118 into the Family Law Act. Important recent cases such as Fairbairn v Radecki [2022] HCA 18; Radecki & Radecki [2024] FedCFamC1A 246; Pickford & Pickford (No 2) [2024] FedCFamC1A 249; and Shinohara & Shinohara [2025] FedCFamC1A 126 are also covered.
