Family Law
In France the increasing impact of European Communty laws and other international treaties, has made legal matters involving the family increasingly difficult to navigate. There are issues arising when a couple of the same nationality come to live in France, or when the couple have different nationality and residency. Individuals must take into account which country’s laws will be applicable to divorce proceedings and to parental rights regarding children.
