Family and inheritance law

Divorce, parental rights, child support, partition and inheritance matters.

Family and inheritance cases are among the most personal and emotionally charged. We approach them with discretion, tact and clear protection of your interest and that of your children.

Whether it concerns the dissolution of a marriage, a dispute over parental rights or the partition of an inheritance, our goal is to reach a fair and lasting solution with as little conflict as possible.

Where possible, we seek an agreement between the parties; where that is not possible, we defend your position consistently before the court.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a divorce by mutual consent take?

Where the relations between the spouses are settled, the proceedings usually conclude within a single court hearing. The timeframes depend on the workload of the relevant court and on the completeness of the prepared documents.

Can child support be changed after the divorce?

Yes. In the event of a substantial change in circumstances — for example the parent's income or the child's needs — the amount of child support can be modified through the court.
