DIVORCE & SEPARATION
Common mistakes to avoid during divorce proceedings
Divorce or separation can be emotionally and legally complex, making it easy to fall into common traps. From financial missteps to parenting conflicts, and procedural oversights, such mistakes can have long-term consequences.
Online divorce
In France, “le divorce en ligne » or online divorce in English is misleading.
In France, online divorce does not exist. If it’s possible to carry out the paperwork related to uncontested divorce, in France, the spouses along with their respective lawyers must have a face-to-face meeting to sign their uncontested divorce agreement. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID THIS MEETING.
Being aware of this, online divorce is possible only for uncontested divorce in France. It allows spouses to separate quickly and at a lower cost.
Collaborative Law

Children maintenance definition
Children maintenance is a set of payments made from one parent to another to help pay for your child’s living costs. It’s paid by the parent who doesn’t usually live with the child to the person who has most day-to-day care of the child and called ’child support’.
This payment is not only based on day-to-day care of the child but also on both parents’ earnings.

In France there are 2 types of adoption.
In the UK there are 4 main types of adoption: fostering to adopt, adoption of a child from foster care, non-agency adoption and overseas adoption.

Financial matters
Divorce with a business involved
The life of a company is shaped by economic and legislative changes, but these elements do not determine a company’s viability. Indeed, financial and management issues can come up when getting a divorce.
Despite private and emotional issues a business owner may have, you can face financial and legal consequences putting your company at risk.
When getting a divorce, the company’s future will be based on your matrimonial property regime and contractual agreements.
French-UK Nuptial agreement
Marital agreement definition in France
In France, a marital agreement is a legal document where spouses decide how they want to share their assets during and after their marriage (divorce, death…).
A marital agreement is not compulsory in France but useful for couples who want to separate assets, properties and belongings.
Postnuptial agreement
Marital agreement definition
A set of financial rules and duties regarding marital life here is the definition of a marital agreement. Before getting married spouses can agree on how they want to manage financial matters within their household such as getting a pre-nuptial agreement.
