parente acquisito


Explanation:
Credo che questa traduzione italiana sia la più vicina al termine inglese. "in law" indica appunto un grado di parentela acquisito e non diretto o legato alla propria famiglia d'origine.
buon lavoro!

parente acquisito, affine


Explanation:
Concordo con Federica e Pat Don. Il Nuovo Boch traduce IN-LAW con "parente acquisito, affine".
Buon lavoro a tutti, Giovanna.
