Connected issues, distinct questions
The end of a marriage affects the spouses’ legal status, the children’s daily lives and the family’s finances. A divorce judgment, a custody arrangement and the liquidation of the matrimonial property regime are different matters. Their legal grounds, evidence and timing must be considered separately.
Divorce and children
The divorce guide explains proceedings, evidence and the legal consequences of ending a marriage. Child custody and maintenance concern care arrangements and financial support.
Property and liquidation
The matrimonial property guide explains how assets acquired during marriage are classified and assessed. Real estate, company shares, bank accounts and crypto assets require different records. The acquisition date, source of funds and value of each asset must be established.
