DIVORCE & SEPARATION
Refinance mortgage after divorce
Divorce is not only an emotional challenge — it is a financial and legal earthquake. One of the most stressful questions separating couples face is:
“What happens to the mortgage and the house?”
For many families, the matrimonial home is the most valuable asset. It also carries the most significant debt.
Micro-cheating divorce
Digital technology has transformed the way people build connections—and, unfortunately, the way they break them. Behaviours that once seemed harmless have become powerful sources of marital conflict.
Military divorce lawyer
Divorces involving military staff are uniquely challenging due to the distinctive lifestyle, obligations, and benefits associated with military service. Frequent relocations, long deployments, and complex compensation structures make these divorces different from standard civil cases.

Children maintenance
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.

Sole custody lawyer
Sole custody, often referred to as full custody, is one of the most critical legal arrangements parents may face following a separation or divorce. Unlike joint custody, where parenting responsibilities are shared, sole custody grants one parent the exclusive right to make major decisions about the child’s upbringing and, in many cases, primary residence.

Financial matters
Calculating child maintenance payments
Child maintenance calculations can vary between countries, and both France and the UK have their own systems for determining child maintenance payments.
United Kingdom (UK):
In the UK, child maintenance payments are typically determined by the Child Maintenance Service (CMS), which is a government agency. The CMS uses a formula to calculate the amount of child maintenance that the non-residential parent (the parent who doesn’t have the main day-to-day care of the child) should pay. The formula considers factors such as the non-residential parent’s gross income, the number of children involved, and the number of nights the children spend with the non-residential parent.
Spousal maintenance
Only spouses so married couples may be entitled to a maintenance claim or to pay for spousal maintenance and your lawyer’s firm can help you calculate the award.
Spousal maintenance definition:
Spousal maintenance is a payment paid by a spouse to the other spouse if a spouse doesn’t have enough income after you’re separated from the other.
When a spouse has much higher income than the other, there may need to be a period of ongoing financial support in order not to affect the well-being of the other.
The paying spouse is the debtor and the one receiving the allowance is the recipient.
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.
