Divorce

The divorce process requires clear documents and a strategy that protects the family’s interests. From the claim and court fee to parental authority and child maintenance, every step matters.

Divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage. If there are grounds the marriage cannot continue and no reconciliation is possible, legal representation in divorce becomes essential for efficient management of the procedure.
