The family is the primary element influencing the fate of the family estate. If you're aware of this before you're forced to, I can help you plan for the future.

In a separation or divorce, everyone has their own expectations. I don't guess at them, and I simply want to listen to you, understand you and give you your realistic options. The rest is either technique or common sense.

My experience includes:

• Amicable and non-amicable divorces (> 1,000)
• Modification of divorce decree
• Measures to protect the marital union (= separation under Swiss law)
• Removal measures
• International divorces
• Security measures on assets (e.g. blocking)
• Break-ups outside marriage and liquidation of partnerships
• Additional foreign judgments (occupational benefits, maintenance)
• Independent liquidation of matrimonial property
• Security measures (blocking, sequestration)
• Taking over a transaction in matrimonial assets and other anti-dilapidation transactions
• Liquidation of intermediate vehicles (asset holding companies)

More or less 30% of the situations I handle involve another nationality. I practice on a daily basis, either on my own or in tandem with foreign lawyers, and I don't hesitate to advise you to start proceedings abroad if it's in your best interests.

My experience includes:

• International divorces
• Planning your arrival in / departure from Switzerland
• Family reunification
• Divorce/forum running
• Additional foreign judgments (occupational benefits, maintenance)

LGBTQ+ families in Switzerland are undergoing a real revolution: they are becoming "normal" families in the eyes of the law. There are still a few complications; I can help you, within the limits of the law, particularly in the case of adoption or the regularization of a birth abroad. In these cases, foreign law can be useful.

My experience includes:

• Petition for distribution of inheritance
• Action to reduce previous distributions

• Executor-related legal actions
• Action for annulment of will

As a former clerk for a child and adult protection authority, I'm familiar with this field and recent developments.

The rules have changed. I'm here to show you what they are today.
