Services
Family law
Family matters affect personal relationships, daily life and the family’s financial arrangements. A legal solution must therefore take account of both the immediate dispute and its longer-term consequences, particularly for children.
We provide legal advice and representation in divorce, parental rights and responsibilities, maintenance and the division of marital community property. We also handle parentage, care of children by a third party, urgent interim measures and the enforcement of decisions concerning minors.
Scope of services
- preparation of divorce petitions and representation in divorce proceedings
- arrangements for children’s care, contact and maintenance, and representation in enforcement proceedings
- preparation and review of parenting agreements
- legal assistance with urgent interim measures concerning minors
- representation in proceedings to establish or contest paternity
- termination and division of marital community property
Our approach
In family matters, we emphasise constructive communication, confidentiality and a thorough understanding of the family’s circumstances. Where children are concerned, we put the best interests of the child first and consider their needs, existing care arrangements and each parent’s circumstances. We prepare agreements with attention to clarity and how they will work in everyday life.
If agreement is not possible, we prepare the procedural approach and evidence around the specific issues in dispute. In property settlements, we examine the origin of the assets, liabilities and supporting documents. We explain the legal options and consequences of each step so that the client can make informed decisions about how to proceed.
