\nFamily law is the section of civil law regulating the family\u2019s legal status and the rights and obligations between the family members. We deal with all types of family law issues, both Swedish and international. We can assist in various financial matters, e.g. prenuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements, co-ownership agreements, gifts, division of property issues and issues concerning maintenance to ex-spouse as well as maintenance allowance to children. We also work with issues of child custody, residence and visitation rights between children and their parents. In these matters, we also have employees wo undertake assignments as mediators.<\/p>\n
We can provide legal counselling and drafting of documents as well as assist in any legal disputes regarding this area of the law. As for international matters, different countries\u2019 legislation might be applicable to separate parts of the matter, which we are well prepared to help bring to clarity.<\/p>\n

\nWhen someone wants to give their property to someone else, it may be necessary to draw up a deed of gift. For the gift to be valid, certain procedural requirements are stipulated, depending both on the character of the property in question and the recipient of the gift.<\/p>\n
In addition to the stipulated procedural requirements, other issues may arise concerning gifts, for instance whether or not the gift shall be considered to constitute an advance inheritance and\/or if the gift shall constitute the recipient\u2019s private property. The donor might also wish to stipulate other conditions regarding the gift, as for instance restrictions for the recipient to sell, mortgage or give away the thus received property without the donor\u2019s consent. It is important that the legal effects of various conditions associated with the gift are considered and clearly stated so that no future conflicts arises as a result of the terms or its legal effects.<\/p>\n
A well formulated and carefully considered deed of gift drawn up in accordance with the procedural requirements may prevent uncertainty and counteract possible future conflicts. Our recommendation is therefore to always have an experienced lawyer assist in establishing a deed of gift. We regularly provide our clients with such assistance in establishing and registering deeds of gifts.<\/p>\n

Division of property refers to the distribution of assets between spouses or cohabitants that is usually required at the dissolution of marriage or cohabitation. The main principle is that such division shall be made by a written agreement between the spouses or cohabitants. In this situation, a need for legal assistance for each of the parties often occurs. This is especially true if the parties have opposing views as to how the division shall be made. We are often trusted to assist one of the parties in these matters.<\/p>\n
If the spouses or cohabitants are unable to agree either on their own or with legal assistance, the court may appoint a so called Estate Distribution Executor. We are appointed as such on a regular basis. The Estate Distribution Executor\u2019s assignment is to make the parties agree on how to divide the property and, if such agreement cannot be reached, decide in the matter in dispute and divide the property between the spouses or cohabitants.<\/p>\n
