What is Family Law about?

Family Law is a Canadian television series set in the emotionally charged legal arena of family law. The narrative centers around Abigail Bianchi, a skilled lawyer whose career takes a downward spiral due to her battle with alcoholism. After a professional debacle that mandates a probationary period, Abby is forced to join her distant father's law firm, Svensson and Associates, a venue that specializes in family law—a field she has no prior experience in.
