The Family Law and Divorce Lawyers and Attorneys industry has seen tepid growth recently, influenced by shifting American family dynamics. Divorce rates have been on the decline, putting a damper on revenue growth. However, per capita disposable income has risen, a silver lining that has allowed more individuals to afford expert legal advice, keeping the industry from going belly up. Despite these mixed signals, successful firms adapt to changing conditions to maintain their competitive edge. Ultimately, lawyers and attorneys practicing in family and divorce law are forecast to see revenue grow at a CAGR of 0.3% to total $13.2 billion over the five years to 2024.
