DIVORCE & SEPARATION
Premarital agreement
Marriage is more than a romantic commitment; it’s also a legal and financial partnership. For international couples, expats, or anyone with property and ties across borders, marriage brings complex legal consequences that differ dramatically between countries. That’s where an international prenuptial agreement (also called an “international prenup” or “marriage contract”) comes in.

The issue of fathers’ rights in family courts is a complex and often contentious area of law, significantly impacting the lives of children and parents alike.

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.
