Separations and divorces: legal advice to face a new stage with confidence

At Carmen Varela, Abogados de Familia, we understand that a breakup is one of the most delicate moments in a person’s life, both emotionally and financially. That’s why we offer close and strategic legal support, starting from the first signs of crisis and allowing our clients to make informed decisions, protect their interests, and plan their future with greater peace of mind.

Our approach: prevent, plan and protect

At our firm, we focus on preventive counseling from the outset of a family crisis. This approach allows us to anticipate potential conflicts and strategically plan for the breakup, taking into account both personal and financial implications.

We help our clients choose the right time to initiate the process, a key aspect in determining issues such as child custody, use of the family home, alimony, and potential financial compensation between spouses.

Whenever possible, we prioritize settlement, as negotiated agreements are often better enforced and contribute to preserving family relationships. However, if negotiation does not guarantee the protection of the client’s legitimate interests, we do not hesitate to pursue litigation with a firm and rigorous defense.

The path we walk together:

First consultation and case analysis

We listen to your situation, address your concerns, and evaluate your personal, family, and financial circumstances to offer you the best legal options.

Strategic planning of the breakup

We help you choose the right time to begin the process, considering key aspects such as custody, family residence, and financial implications.

Negotiation of agreements

We seek fair and sustainable agreements through dialogue, prioritizing family well-being and avoiding unnecessary legal disputes.

Legal proceedings if there is no agreement

If amicable means are not viable, we initiate contentious proceedings with a clear strategy and a firm defense of your rights.

Once a separation, annulment, or divorce has been declared, we continue to support you in complying with the measures and in any future modifications.

We defend your interests at every stage of the legal process, ensuring solid representation based on our experience in family law. We maintain constant communication with you to keep you informed of every development.

Case resolution and follow-up

Once an agreement has been reached or a judgment has been issued, we advise you on the next steps and how to comply with the resolutions. If new needs arise in the future, we remain available to provide you with the best legal support.
