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.

What is the difference between a will and a trust?
When it comes to estate planning, understanding the difference between a will and a trust is crucial. A will is a legal document that outlines how your assets should be distributed after your death and can designate guardians for minor children. In contrast, a trust is a legal arrangement where a trustee holds and manages assets on behalf of beneficiaries, which can take effect during your lifetime or upon your passing. While both serve to distribute your assets, they differ in terms of when they take effect, how they are managed, and the legal processes they follow.

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. If the spouses do not attend a prenup agreement (for the French law), then they will automatically get involved into the universal community of assets.
Prenuptial agreement
Regarding French Law, prenuptial or marital property agreement is a legal document drawn up between a couple before their marriage to manage their assets and the type of marital agreement they want.
This is sometimes difficult to understand as even if prenuptial agreement are a common thing in other countries, choosing the right type of agreement does not exist in Common Law.
Legal consequences depending on the type of agreement are finally understood and lead to arguments when spouses decide to get an international divorce. This is also true when expats were not aware of their marital agreement and the law does not correspond to their culture.
If you are a French expat or you have assets as your partner in France or whatever your citizenship is, we advise to get a bilingual international family law lawyer.
