Principles of the law of family dissolution is an innovative and groundbreaking work in the field of family law. This work offers a legal framework that accommodates both important traditional family values and the realities and expectations of modern conditions. Examining the legal consequences of family dissolution, this work includes chapters on: Custodial and decisionmaking responsibility for children, Child support, Distribution of marital property, Compensatory payments to former spouses, Domestic partners, and Premarital, marital, and separation agreements. Prepared during a decade's consultation with family-law experts in the judiciary, the practicing bar, and the universities, and with extensive citations to the underlying case law and secondary authority, this work offers valuable guidance to practicing lawyers, courts, legislatures, and other lawmaking bodies concerned with the legal issues that accompany the break-up of families.

"In November 2003, the American Law Institute issued an errata sheet for the printed version of Principles of the law of family dissolution: analysis and reccomendations. The corrections do not appear in the printed version (outside of the errata sheet), but they have been applied directly to the Westlaw version"--scope information screen.
