Published and unpublished decisions from the Supreme Judicial Court and the Appeals Court change, refine and interpret the vast body of relevant statutory and case law in the family law arena every year. 2025 was no exception, with significant (and even ground-breaking) appellate decisions addressing issues including alimony and child support, custody, income for support purposes, pensions, among others.
