Property issues between partners and between partners and third parties

There are specific rules that apply to property in the context of marital relationships and in relation to third parties during the marriage or if the marriage ends.

I can advise you on the most suitable regime for your marriage, depending on your situation and, depending on changing circumstances, on the best way to organise the sale, holding, donation and succession of your goods. In the event of separation or divorce, it is important to be well advised in the division of property. I can also help you anticipate the management of your estate to avoid difficulties in the event of your death.

I am an experienced family estate lawyer and I will help you find a solution to any legal issues you have in this area.

Inheritance planning

The law in France lays down very precise rules for the transfer of property from a deceased person to his heirs. If inheritance is not planned properly, the position of the surviving partner can be difficult. I can advise you on the steps to take so that your estate is distributed according to your wishes after your death, insofar as the law allows it.

Division of property

If you separate or divorce, you will need to make arrangements to divide the property acquired during the marriage. It is best to reach an amicable settlement if possible. However, if this is not possible, there are legal remedies. There can be some complexity in dividing property depending on how the assets were acquired between the couple. It is best to consult a lawyer as soon as possible.

Protection of your assets from creditors

If you are in business, the legal form you choose for your business can have consequences for claims upon your assets in the event of a debt. I can advise you on the best way to set up your business to protect your assets from creditors. I will defend your interests in the event of a claim by creditors.

Tax-efficient property management

If you want to minimise the tax payable on your assets, it is important to consider their ownership structure. I can advise you on how you manage your property in the most financially beneficial way.
