DIVORCE & SEPARATION
Choosing the applicable divorce Law
If you are an expatriate couple considering divorce in Europe, understanding how to choose the applicable law is crucial. The Rome III Regulation—in force for certain EU countries—gives spouses the right to choose which national law will govern their divorce or legal separation. But the process can be tricky, especially for couples with ties to different countries or different legal traditions—like French civil law and common law systems.

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.
