What Is Family Law? What Does It Cover?

Family law regulates the rights and obligations of individuals within a marriage, as well as matters related to divorce and children. Expert legal support is crucial to resolving conflicts and preventing loss of rights.

Divorce Cases

Divorce proceedings may be filed as uncontested or contested cases. In both cases, issues like asset division, child custody, and alimony are addressed.

  • Uncontested divorce: A type of divorce where both parties agree on all matters and the process is concluded in a single hearing.

  • Contested divorce: Filed due to reasons such as infidelity, domestic violence, or abandonment; typically more complex and evidence-based.

Child Custody and Visitation Rights

After a divorce, family courts determine who will be granted custody of the child and set visitation schedules.

Types of Alimony

Various types of alimony may be claimed before or after the divorce:

  • Child support (participation alimony)

Property Regime and Asset Division

Assets acquired during marriage are subject to division under the “participation in acquired property” regime. However, couples may also sign a marital property agreement to regulate this differently.

What Is Inheritance Law?

Inheritance law governs who inherits a deceased person's assets and in what proportion. Legal heirs include descendants (children and grandchildren), spouses, parents, and siblings. The deceased may also prepare a will to allocate assets to specific individuals, although statutory shares of certain heirs are protected.
