DIVORCE & SEPARATION

Getting divorced who gets the house
Dividing assets during a divorce is often one of the most contentious issues. In France, divorce affects approximately 45% of marriages, and one of the primary concerns for couples is determining who gets the marital home. This issue becomes even more complex when international assets are involved, as laws vary significantly across jurisdictions.

Fault divorce
Definition of a fault divorce
A fault divorce is a type of divorce in which one spouse alleges that the other spouse is responsible for the breakdown of the marriage due to specific grounds or fault-based reasons, such as adultery, cruelty, abandonment, or substance abuse. In a fault divorce, the accusing spouse must provide evidence of the alleged misconduct in court to support their claim for the divorce. This is in contrast to a no-fault divorce, where the spouses can seek a divorce without having to prove that one party is at fault for the marriage’s dissolution. Fault divorces are less common in modern legal systems, as many jurisdictions now primarily offer no-fault divorce options.

Uncontested divorce
In France, a mutual consent divorce is known as “divorce par consentement mutuel” or “divorce by mutual consent.” It is a specific type of divorce process that allows a married couple to end their marriage amicably without going through a lengthy and contentious legal battle.
The spouses, often with the assistance of their respective lawyers, draft a “convention de divorce” or divorce agreement. This document outlines the terms of the divorce, including how property, assets, and liabilities will be divided, child custody arrangements, and any other relevant issues.
