Heart's Decree
The Law of the Heart is a story that takes place in a successful law firm specializing in family law, specializing in divorce cases and, in general, in family and relationship conflicts. The decisions these lawyers make often affect them both inside and outside the office and in the courts. Some of them are guided by the law, but others are guided by their hearts—two paths that don't always go hand in hand when it comes to resolving legal conflicts.
