Family Law
In family law, we address matters touching marriage, divorce, annulment, legal separation, and the welfare of children. Our approach combines sensitivity with diligent advocacy, ensuring clients understand their rights and options. We oversee negotiations for prenuptial agreements, custody arrangements, support and visitation, and property division, while guiding clients through procedures, mediation, and, when necessary, court proceedings to secure stable, just outcomes.
Annulment of Marriage
Our firm specializes in family law matters focused on annulment, custody, and the recognition of foreign divorce under Philippine law. We guide clients through the nuanced process of nullity of marriage, including grounds, procedural steps, and documentary requirements, with a clear emphasis on due process and sensitivity to clients’ personal circumstances. We provide strategic case assessment and custom action plans tailored to each client’s goals.
Custody
Custody and parenting arrangements are central to our practice. We help determine applicable standards for child custody, support, visitation rights, and parental responsibilities, always prioritizing the child’s best interests. Our approach combines thorough legal analysis with compassionate guidance, ensuring clients understand available options, timelines, and potential outcomes while maintaining stability for the family.
Recognition of Foreign Divorce
Recognition of foreign divorce is a complex area where Philippine jurisdiction interacts with international status. We assist clients seeking recognition or effect of foreign divorce decrees, advising on documentary requirements, factors affecting validity, and potential conflicts with the Family Code and constitutional rights. Our team coordinates with relevant authorities to secure enforceable outcomes that reflect current international and local legal standards.
