Family Law

I find the show funny, entertaining, I like the subject matter they address on the show (addiction, gay issues, family dunamics). I have always really liked Victor Garber.

A very well-written show. Each week it deals with a different legal case which is usually pretty interesting. The main character, Abigail is very likeable, and the show also has a heart, there are many heartfelt or emotional moments which just make you feel things.

There is a fascinating bigger overarching story about the relationship Abigail has with her father, which the show explores in a delicate and intelligent way. I am happy I started watching this series and I recommend giving it a chance :).

Despite some Lifetime channel overtones and some atrocious musical choices (the theme being the worst offender) Family Law ended up as one of my favourite series of 2021. Jewel Staite plays a disgraced lawyer who's trying to do better and working with her dysfunctional family in their law firm. It's a silly premise but there's buckets of character and Family Law is steeped in this relentlessly pragmatic empathy that's both comforting and addictive. The casting is brilliantly authentic and the Vancouver setting (for once just being itself) feels different. Yes it's cheesy, but not as brash as an American equivalent would be and the writing is snappy and consistent; each new case has a solid point to make and it's woven together by the travails of the Svensson clan. Also, Victor Garber, people. I'm glad they shot another season at the same time and I'm deeply up for more. A true guiltless pleasure.

Love this series! Terrific to discover Season Two after viewing Season One some months ago. Half way thru Season Two now &enjoying even more. Anything with Victor Garber is always great & though I was unfamiliar with other actors previously, I'm impressed with them. Each episode is enthralling, unique & super interesting. Just hope we get a Season Three...this is such a cool, well acted, intelligent & interesting series with great characters. Highly recommend this entertaining show. Family Law could be an off putting title; each episode does have great comic relief & eccentric characters. Super!

Now nearly finished Season 3...love it! So disappointed to be near end of this eminently watchable series...please make Season 4...not finished with Family Law & all the great characters comprising this intelligent Practice etc.

This is my favourite show. Can't wait to see more episodes. It is so addictive. I will be watching for more. Love it. Love all the characters. My husband is also a big fan.
