Good to know

This readiness check is a first orientation – not a legal review of your case. A divorce in Germany usually requires a completed year of separation; if it has not yet been completed, planning the deadlines early is worthwhile.

Whether a procedure is amicable or contested has a major impact on duration and cost. With a cross-border element, international jurisdiction and applicable law should be clarified early; with substantial assets, valuation and the equalisation of gains matter. We are happy to provide a sound assessment of your specific case in a personal initial consultation, in English.
