DIVORCE & SEPARATION
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.
Women divorce lawyers
Divorce is a life-altering event, often accompanied by emotional, financial, and legal complexities. Women face unique challenges in divorce, from balancing childcare with career responsibilities to negotiating fair settlements and protecting their safety in cases involving domestic abuse. A women divorce lawyer provides both legal expertise and a nuanced understanding of the challenges women face during divorce.

International child law
International child law is a dynamic and vital field of law that addresses the rights, protection, and welfare of children across international borders. In an increasingly globalized world, families are more mobile, and cross-border interactions are commonplace, leading to a rise in complex legal issues concerning children. These can include international child abduction, custody disputes, intercountry adoption, trafficking, and exploitation.
Third party and grandparents rights
When families break down, a minor can find himself in a middle of conflicts and distanced from their relatives and siblings such as the grandparents.
Parents have parental responsibility for their child(ren) opposed to grandparents who don’t automatically have parental responsibility and they are referred as third parties.

Criminal family law
Joint custody lawyer
Custody disputes are among the most emotionally charged and complex issues parents face after separation or divorce. When the family unit breaks down, the most important question becomes: what is best for the child? Across legal systems worldwide, courts, lawmakers, and parents are increasingly shifting toward joint custody—a model where both parents share in the rights and responsibilities of raising their children.
Child abduction
What is child abduction?
“L’enlevement parental” or child abduction in English is when a person takes a minor out of France without the consent of those with parental responsibility.
It can be a child’s parent.
“l’enlevement parental” is not a legal word, only abduction is and is a criminal offence in France.
When child abduction is suspected, you must react quickly. Child abduction is a sensitive and complex matter that can cause stress and anxiety for everyone involved.
It’s important to note that in France, parental responsibility is shared. You do not need the other parent’s agreement to take a child abroad.
Protection orders
In France, a protection order or restraining order is known as “ordonnance de protection.” It is a legal measure made to protect victims of domestic abuse or harassment. This order can be issued by a judge and may include a range of provisions to ensure the safety and well-being of the person who has been subjected to abuse or threats. The specific provisions of a protection order can vary based on the individual circumstances.

Will definition
A will, also known as a last will and testament, is a legal document that expresses an individual’s wishes regarding the distribution of their property, assets, and the care of any minor children upon their death. The person creating the will is known as the “testator” (or “testatrix” for a female), and they outline specific instructions for how their estate should be handled after their death.
