UH: What is the major difference in the law of divorce and relationships in the different countries that you offer your services in? (In terms of dividing assets)
Samara: The major differences in divorce laws among countries often revolve around the principles of property division. Some jurisdictions follow community property laws, where assets acquired during the marriage are generally considered equally owned. Others adhere to equitable distribution, aiming for a fair, but not necessarily equal, division of assets.

UH: What is more challenging in the divorce cases, is it the children between the couple or the dividing assets part?
Samara: The challenges in divorce cases can vary depending on individual circumstances. While dividing assets is a significant aspect, issues related to children, such as custody arrangements, visitation rights, and child support, often present emotional and logistical challenges.

UH: How can people manage themselves before getting divorced so they don’t have a problem with the child support and maintenance?
Samara: Prior to divorce, individuals can manage themselves by open communication and, if possible, reaching mutual agreements on child support and maintenance. Seeking mediation or legal advice can provide clarity on potential future arrangements.

UH: Is there any pre-agreement that couples should make before getting married that can help them make everything easier if they got divorced? (in terms of dividing assets)
Samara: Prenuptial agreements are legal documents that couples can enter into before marriage to outline the division of assets in the event of divorce. Such agreements can provide clarity and potentially simplify the process if the marriage ends.

UH: Is there any pre-agreement a couple should make before having a child that can help them make everything easier if they got divorced?
Samara: Similarly, couples can consider agreements before having children, addressing aspects like custody preferences, visitation schedules, financial support, and relocation plans. This can help avoid disputes and ensure the best interests of the child are prioritised.

UH: Is there a country where the resident parent can take the child away for more than 28 days without any child agreement orders or residence orders?
Samara: The regulations regarding the duration a resident parent can take a child away without specific orders vary among jurisdictions. It is crucial for parents to understand and adhere to local laws to prevent legal complications.

UH: Does always the issues in the divorce happen to women or the law starts supporting women more?
Samara: Family law strives for gender neutrality, aiming to ensure fairness for both parties. While historical biases may have existed, modern legal systems aim to treat men and women equally in divorce proceedings.

UH: Does experiencing something similar make you more understandable to the cases that come to your company?
Samara: Not really, we obtain our own experience from our clients’ cases and are able to advise them.
