Lawyers for contentious divorces
Our law firm provides numerous legal services in relation to contentious divorces and consequent division of assets and regulation of parental responsibilities.
Regulation of parental authority
We handle proceedings for the regulation of parental authority when there are minor children. We also represent clients in the same actions when they have minor children but live in a de facto union or do not live or have not even lived together but wish to regulate parental authority.
Lawyers for custody of minor children
Recourse to lawyers for custody of minor children occurs in the event of resorting to court. The law provides for two options, namely sole custody (one of the couple takes care of the minors full-time) or shared custody (both actively participate in the daily life and education of the children).
Lawyers for awarding maintenance
The awarding of maintenance to minors is one of the most frequent points of disagreement after a divorce. It is for the court to fix the amount, according to criteria of equity, that is, the objective is not that each parent contributes half of the stipulated amount but that, within their means, they ensure the possible amount in terms of food, housing, clothing and education of the children.
Division of assets
When division of assets is associated with divorces, the matrimonial property regime is the basis of the final decision: with community of acquests (in which common assets and separate assets brought into the marriage by one or both members of the couple coexist), general community (all assets are common, except for legal exceptions) and complete separation of assets (regime in which all assets are separate).
We provide specific services in the area of Family Law
We guarantee to analyse each case in a 100% personalised manner and to attempt to find the best legal solutions for all parties involved.
Inheritance
When divisions arise from an inheritance, namely due to the death of a family member, we also carry out the inventory proceedings upon death, which includes the corresponding asset listing.
When the division is made in accordance with the wishes of an individual expressed in a will, we also provide legal support to the heirs.
