In marriage, partnership and family law
we support you in the legal protection of
your personal affairs.
In the event of a divorce, it is often no longer possible to determine which assets were brought into the marriage by the spouses or which were created or saved during the marriage. The more disputes there are in court, the more expensive the divorce becomes. In order to avoid a costly and nerve-wracking dispute about the division of marital assets and other consequences of divorce, it is advisable to conclude a prenuptial agreement in advance to regulate these issues. We will help you to deal with this sensitive issue. If divorce proceedings are already pending in court, we will advise you on all related issues. As objective advisors to both spouses, we support them in reaching a contractual agreement on the division of marital property, spousal and child maintenance, child custody and other consequences of divorce. Such a notarial settlement is a cost-effective solution and is recognized by the divorce court and used as a basis for settlement in the proceedings.
The increasing social importance and legal recognition of marriage-like communities means that more and more cohabiting partners want to make agreements that come as close as possible to the legal effects of marriage in certain areas, such as housing law, maintenance issues, inheritance law and the division of assets in the event of separation. A partnership agreement can regulate the legal framework for the cohabitation of a couple during the partnership and after its dissolution. We have a great deal of experience, patience and understanding in the area of matrimonial and family law.
