Family Law
The firm advises and represents clients in family law matters where it is necessary to connect the legal framework with sensitive personal, parental and proprietary circumstances. Legal assistance may include advice before initiating proceedings, preparation of documentation, negotiations, conclusion of agreements and representation before courts and competent authorities. In family matters it is particularly important to assess whether there is room for agreement, as disputes involving children, maintenance or division of property often require solutions that are legally sustainable and viable in practice. Where agreement is not possible, action is directed towards clear protection of the client’s rights and interests.
