Family law
We know that there is a lot to sort out regarding family matters and that legal certainty and discretion are particularly important here. That is why we are here to help you.
Austrian notaries are experienced in family law and can be valuable advisors to help you make crucial decisions. We offer the following services:
Adoption
We can help you create the legal framework for your child’s adoption. The adopted child is legally equal to the biological child through a written contract. We can take all the steps for you, including court approval.
Prenuptial agreement
A marriage contract can help you to settle the legal situation during your marriage or in case of a divorce in time. We can offer you a tailor-made solution for your family situation that creates legal clarity and avoids expensive disputes.
Divorce by mutual consent
If you and your spouse agree on the division of marital property, a notarial arrangement can be a cost-effective solution. As objective advisors, our notaries can advise both spouses and summarise an agreement in a settlement submitted to the competent judge.
Parental custody
If you and your partner separate, a written agreement on caring for your children can avoid disputes. We can help you create a legally clear agreement that is approved by a court.
Partnership agreement
We want to help you to regulate the legal framework for your partnership. With a partnership agreement, you can individually handle essential matters such as inheritance and residence laws.
Unfortunately, there is little regulation in law for partnerships, which makes it all the more important to find and fix solutions yourself. Even if you invest in your partner’s home, these investments remain unprotected without an individual contract, and it is not guaranteed if and when you get the investments back.
Patchwork families
In times of increasingly diverse family structures, such as patchwork families, there can also be many questions about rights and responsibilities. A partnership contract by a notary can provide clarity and certainty in such situations by answering who has what rights and how to regulate asset building and other important matters for the children with the ex-partner.
Let us create a partnership agreement that considers your wishes and needs. We are always at your disposal.
