I would like to one day attend law school and hopefully become a family attorney? I know you can basically take any major and enter law school, but I want one that will be beneficial to me. I was also considering psychology.

I'd take psychology. Both are known as easy majors, so they're good in that regards (don't expect law schools to be impressed by your "rigorous" course of studies, but an A is an A to them).
Psychology should be more beneficial as a family attorney. I know you'd like to understand family politics, but that's more in psychology than Poly Sci. Poly sci is pretty useless to you actually since you know what you want to do already and it's not gov't politics related in any real way.

If you like politics it would, because your interest will help you get a good GPA.
However, if you're sure you want to become a family attorney, I'm sure there are more relevant subjects available.
I can see where psychology might help, especially taking classes in family and child psychology. In psychology you learn a lot of things about individuals and you have some pretty horrific case studies that can prepare you for family law.
