About AAML

Founded in 1962 with a mission to elevate the standards of matrimonial law and to preserve the welfare of the family and society, the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers is a national not-for-profit membership association comprised of the nation's leading matrimonial attorneys from 46 states and the District of Columbia.

Fellows of the Academy specialize in all issues related to marriage, divorce, annulment, matters affecting unmarried cohabitants, child custody and visitation and property distribution, alimony and support. Each fellow must demonstrate by personal conduct a professional and ethical commitment to his or her clients and to society at large in resolving what are often intensely emotional and complex family problems. By demonstrating the highest standards of matrimonial practice themselves, Fellows of the Academy have set the standard for the rest of the matrimonial bar and have helped improve the quality of family law practice throughout the country for attorneys and litigants alike

The Northern California chapter is one of 33 chapters in 24 states that conduct local continuing education programs, participate in the legislative process and engage in a variety of other activities to serve the public and improve the practice of matrimonial law
