What happens when love turns to litigation? For Better or Worse: An Introduction to Family Law in Australia is an authoritative and accessible guide that answers the pressing legal questions ordinary Australians face when marriages and de facto relationships break down. Maurice Gurvich cuts through the dense legal jargon to address real-world concerns — from divorce and property rights to the financial realities of separation — presenting complex family law principles in plain, comprehensible language. The book tackles questions such as whether marriage automatically grants ownership of shared property, what one is entitled to live on following separation, and whether legal action is even financially viable for the average person. Gurvich writes with the clarity and precision of a seasoned legal practitioner, making this volume an invaluable resource for anyone navigating Australia's family law system without a legal background. The work argues that access to legal knowledge should not be the exclusive domain of lawyers, and it illustrates how informed individuals can better advocate for their own rights. Whether you are contemplating separation, already in the midst of a dispute, or simply seeking to understand your legal standing in a de facto relationship, this guide provides answers that could prove decisive — leaving the reader to wonder just how much they didn't know before they opened it.
