FAMILY LAW

Divorce should not be considered a personal failure, but rather a shift in joint plans that are no longer pursued together. In such cases, it is important to plan ahead and establish a secure foundation for the future. Seeking sound legal advice is crucial in order to achieve this.

Marriages Abroad and Binational Marriages: Navigating Legal Complexities

Especially in the case of binational marriages, the choice of law governing the divorce proceedings can significantly impact the parties‘ interests, particularly regarding matters such as custody and maintenance. Seeking early legal consultation on the available options can benefit both parties and lead to sustainable solutions, especially when dealing with important issues like shared child custody and future maintenance payments.

Ensuring Legal Certainty for Both Parties: The Benefits of a Prenuptial Agreement in the Event of Divorce

Reviewing the details of a legal agreement and its enforceability is crucial. Seeking legal advice on this matter can help ensure that both parties are fully informed of their rights and obligations.

  • Marital Protection
  • Separation/Divorce
  • Custody
  • Maintenance/Alimony
  • Prenuptial Agreement

Inheritance Law

Have you taken the necessary steps to plan your estate? Have you decided which national law should be applied in case of your foreign citizenship (IPRG)? It is important to consider who will inherit your assets if you do not make any arrangements. Seeking legal advice can help ensure that your wishes are properly documented and legally enforceable.

Keeping Control in Your Hands: Take Charge of Your Situation

How can you plan for the financial support of your children or grandchildren during your lifetime while avoiding negative tax implications? Have you taken measures to ensure that after your passing, your estate will be administered by your spouse or close relatives instead of the KESB (Child and Adult Protection Authority in Switzerland)? Moreover, what will happen in the event of your legal incapacity, leaving you unable to make decisions regarding your assets?

Managing Inheritance with an Agreement and Family Foundation

Are you considering the tax and retirement benefits of an inheritance agreement? Do you want to leave a lasting impact through a foundation based in Switzerland or abroad, either for your family or for social and cultural causes? Do you want to disinherit a compulsory heir, and which national law would be most appropriate for this purpose? Would the appointment of an executor be advantageous in your case?

If you are grappling with these or similar questions that may impact your future, take advantage of the opportunity to make a difference.

The Significance of Consulting a Lawyer for German and Swiss Law

You can ensure a professional and efficient handling of your case by choosing a lawyer who is well-versed in both legal systems, instead of engaging two separate lawyers who may have difficulty communicating and understanding each other’s perspective. By choosing a lawyer who practices in both Swiss and German law, you can avoid unnecessary coordination and save time and money. We are committed to providing legal advice in both legal systems.
