Family law and inheritance law

Diverse questions of a family law nature, mostly connected with questions from inheritance law, arise and need to be answered. In these very personal matters, we offer comprehensive support that is individually tailored to you.

family law

• You are married or intend to get married. The question arises for you as to whether you are entering into a marriage and / or inheritance contract with your (future) spouse.
• You intend to get divorced, you are already separated or the separation is imminent. What conditions must be met before you can file for divorce? How does the divorce procedure work? What rights do you have regarding separation and divorce? Are there possibilities to carry out separation and divorce by mutual consent?
• Your spouse has already filed for divorce and/or he/she lodges family-law claims against you, for example for payment of maintenance. How do you react to the divorce application? How does the divorce procedure work? What rights do you have in relation to separation and divorce? Are there ways for a mutual divorce?
• You are already divorced. Divorce-related rights, such as the right to alimony or the transfer of assets have not yet been regulated, or already regulated alimony claims need to be amended.

Inheritance Law

• Who should inherit your property after your death? What options are available to you (will or inheritance contract) to determine who should receive which share? What would the legal succession be? What additional options are there in a marriage?
• A relative of yours has passed away. You may have inherited, but you do not know to what extent and how to proceed.
