Sumario:This article aims to show that the lawsuits in the family court are built with the use of characters to support the lawyers’ arguments. It uses as material petitions and lawsuit countercharges of two very common types of lawsuits. The analysis of the material enabled to check the repetition of arguments around images culturally related to moral and ideological concepts about the family that overlap the most important discussions about the children and adolescents involved. The same way it structures itself, the adversarial model does not facilitate the resolution of family conflicts and it can have permanent consequences in the way the familial relationships standardized by court happen.
