Family law encompasses legal principles and regulations that govern various aspects of relationships and property rights within families. Specifically, in the context of cohabitation, marriage (prenuptial), and property agreements, family law addresses the legal framework surrounding couples who live together without being married, couples who are preparing for marriage and wish to establish prenuptial agreements, and couples seeking to define their property rights and obligations through property agreements.

Cohabitation agreements establish the rights and responsibilities of unmarried couples, including matters related to property, financial support, and child custody.

Prenuptial agreements, entered into before marriage, outline the division of property and financial matters in the event of separation or divorce.

Property agreements enable couples, whether married or unmarried, to define their respective rights and obligations concerning shared assets, debts, and property division. Family law professionals play a crucial role in advising individuals in these areas, drafting agreements that reflect their intentions, and ensuring compliance with applicable laws, providing clarity and protection for couples in their personal relationships and property matters.

Separation and divorce involve the legal dissolution of a marital or domestic partnership, addressing issues such as division of assets and debts, child custody and visitation, child and spousal support, and the resolution of any other related matters.
