The American
Academy of
Matrimonial
Lawyers
Minnesota Chapter
The mission of the Minnesota
Chapter of the American Academy
of Matrimonial Lawyers is to
create an intellectual, professional
and collegial environment which
will prepare and inspire members
to improve family law.
Members of the Academy are rec-ognized for their innovation, compas-sion and competence in the practice of family law. To be considered for mem-bership, a lawyer must have a highly developed matrimonial law practice. In addition to undergoing a compre-hensive application review, applicants must pass a national test pertaining to all aspects of family law, including taxation, federally enacted statutes and international conventions. Each year the members of our chap-ter elect officers to oversee the orga-nization’s operations. Members are appointed to various committees that are formed to accomplish the chap-ter’s commitment to improve the prac-tice of family law and enhance the welfare of the family. We encourage all qualified practitioners to apply for membership.
