Family law and matrimonial property settlements

With globalisation, family relationships are becoming increasingly international in nature, which is impacting family law as a whole and more specifically the matrimonial property regimes that govern the financial relationship between spouses and also between life partners for some foreign residents. These issues are particularly common in the Principality of Monaco, which now has a large and highly mobile foreign population.
    
We specialise in the following areas:

  • Drafting or amendment of marriage contracts
  • Recognition of foreign marriage contracts in the Principality
  • Modification or settlement of matrimonial property arrangements
  • Contentious and amicable divorces
  • Recognition / challenging of paternity
  • Adoption
  • Cohabitation agreements

We work in close collaboration with our network of associated firms in over 40 countries to meet our clients' needs for a cross-border assistance.
