Inheritance and divorce: what happens to assets after the end of the marriage?
One of the least discussed but most delicate topics concerns the relationship between inheritance and divorce. Many people who are separating or who are drafting a will wonder whether the former spouse can still claim inheritance rights or have a say in the testamentary dispositions.
To answer, it is essential to distinguish between separation…
Divorce allowance: 7 factors the judge considers before deciding
There is no automatic right to the divorce allowance. In every divorce proceeding, the judge assesses a series of elements to establish whether one of the two former spouses has the right to receive it, in what amount and for how long. This assessment is not only economic, but also takes into account the entire marital history and the personal an…
Separation with charging of fault: when one of the two is guilty
Not all marital crises are alike. In some cases, the end of the relationship does not depend on a mutual and gradual estrangement, but on serious, unilateral conduct that breaks the couple’s balance. It is in these situations that the possibility of a separation with charging of fault may emerge.
Those who suffer infidelity, sudden abandonment…
Same-sex parental adoption in Italy: what the law says (and does not say)
In Italy, the topic of same-sex parental adoption still lacks a uniform and fully recognised regulation. Italian law does not expressly provide for the possibility for a same-sex couple to adopt a child jointly. However, there are cases in which it has been possible to obtain legal recognition, albeit through indirect and complex paths.
In rec…
Adoption of an adult: an opportunity to give a legal bond
There are relationships which, although not sealed by a tie of blood, represent in every respect a deep, constant and lasting bond. People who have taken care of one another, perhaps from childhood or in a critical moment of life, and who today wish to give that bond a solid legal form. In many cases, it is precisely from this wish that an intere…
Equal-time custody: advantages, risks and how it is implemented
Equal-time custody is a form of custody based on the full sharing of time and parental responsibilities between the two parents, even after separation. Unlike the traditional model, in which the child lives stably with only one of the parents, equal-time custody provides for a balanced management, often divided symmetrically.
But how does it r…
Shared custody or sole custody: which better protects the minor?
When a couple separates, the question that often emerges is: which form of custody ensures greater protection of the minor? Italian law provides for two main arrangements: shared custody and sole custody. Understanding the differences is not just a legal question, but a fundamental step in deciding in the interest of the child.
Shared custody…
International custody of children: the most delicate cases according to the law firm
In a recent case dealt with by our law firm for international custody, an Italian mother and a foreign father, after the separation, found themselves discussing the custody of the daughter born during the marriage. The mother wished to return to Italy with the minor, while the father intended to keep the child’s residence in the foreign country i…
Custody of the adult child: when the judge is still needed
Many parents think that, with the eighteenth birthday, every legal bond between mother, father and child comes to an end. But it is not so. In some situations, even after the age of majority, the intervention of the judge may become necessary, especially if the child is not economically self-sufficient or finds themselves in a condition of vulner…
Single and adoption: is it really possible to become parents on one’s own?
Wishing to become parents is not exclusive to couples. More and more people wonder about the possibility of building a project of parenthood even without a partner. But how realistic is it for a single person to adopt a child in Italy? The deep wish to take care of a minor encounters, in our legal system, precise rules that are not always easy to…
