Family Law

HoLLy ♥ asked:


I am currently writing my personal statement, and I want to study law at Uni. I am interested in family law and want to show this clearly and successfully, but I’m not too sure of the best way to do this. I thought a good opening sentence would be

“although my parents are still married, my family has seen its fair share of turbulent divorces…”

and then go on about how id like to help etc, and how id like to help people. I think there can be injustices in divorce and i want to solve them, I just don’t know how to portray this. Does anyone have any ideas, or how I can expand, or just tips for personal statements on law, particularly family law, in general?
