    I drafted the certification rules and the first exam. The exam is liberally graded but you should know the part five rules cold . In addition it probably pays to know the uniform laws on custody and child support. Finally, know the new alimony statute .Beyond that, it's not a bar exam. Good luck.

    I've long debated whether it's worth it to pursue matrimonial certification.  Does it have any real-world effect?  The only thing it's said to me is that, in a case where I've never dealt with the adversary, someone who's certified (presumptively anyway) knows what they're doing. Is there any real benefit to being certified that makes it worth the time and effort of pursuing it?

    Good luck with the test to those taking it!
