Family Law Season 4 Set For Summer Premiere On The CW — Get Details

Jewel Staite and spy law daddy Victor Garber will practice more Family Law when Season 4 of the series airs Stateside on The CW this summer.

Specifically, Family Law's 10-episode fourth season will launch Wednesday, July 23 at 8/7c — more than 16 months after the Season 3 finale aired here in the U.S.

As Season 4 kicks off, "Abigail's (played by Staite) home, work and romantic life are up in flames," the official synopsis tells us. "Her boyfriend Ben (Benjamin Ayres) has fallen off the wagon, Sofia (Eden Summer Gilmore) has written a devastating essay about her mother's alcoholism, and Harry (Garber) has passed her over for equity partnership.

"Abby decides to give Ben a second chance – though it only leads to more disappointment," the overview continues. "Later, sparks fly when she meets someone new and unexpected, but is she ready to date again?"

"Professionally, Abby's concerns about a major development at the firm are ignored, forcing her to make a decision that sends shockwaves through the office – and her family. Meanwhile, Harry and Joanne (Lauren Holly) manage their breakup poorly, until they both have experiences that make them reevaluate what truly matters. At work, Harry's plan for a lucrative merger with a rival law office looks like a sure thing until it forces him to make an impossible choice."

Additionally, "Daniel (Zach Smadu) mourns the end of his 'relationship' with Martina (Miranda Edwards) by having a one-night stand, and his life is further turned upside down when Jude shares life-changing news with him. Lucy (Genelle Williams) ends her relationship with the manipulative Kelly (Aliyah O'Brien), but the break-up leaves her wracked with self-doubt – until she's upfront about her insecurities on a podcast, which leads to exciting opportunities and possible romance."

Family Law Season 4's awaited Stateside premiere date comes one week after The CW announced it had picked up two seasons of Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent, and with the netlet yet to make a decision on airing Season 3 (or even 4) of Wild Cards, which recently got a 2x renewal in Canada.

Family Law Season 4 has yet to air in Canada, though I am told that news on that front may arrive in the coming weeks.
