Family law matters involve deeply personal decisions, financial considerations, and practical arrangements that require careful legal guidance.
ACMA LAW FIRM advises individuals and families on divorce, parental responsibility, child custody, parenting arrangements, child support, matrimonial property, judicial support proceedings, and adoption in Greece.
We approach each matter with discretion, professionalism, and sensitivity to the circumstances of the people involved.
Where appropriate, we seek negotiated solutions that reduce conflict and support workable family arrangements. When court proceedings are necessary, we provide focused legal representation and a strategy tailored to the client’s needs.
Consensual Divorce
A consensual divorce allows spouses to dissolve their marriage by agreement, provided that the applicable legal requirements are satisfied.
ACMA LAW FIRM assists with:
Assessing whether a consensual divorce is appropriate.
Negotiating the terms of the divorce agreement.

Addressing parental responsibility, custody, and parenting arrangements where minor children are involved.
Negotiating child support and other financial matters.

A clearly drafted agreement can reduce future uncertainty and provide a practical framework for the family after the marriage ends.

Where the spouses cannot reach an agreement, divorce may need to be pursued through the appropriate court proceedings.
Our services include:
Reviewing the circumstances of the marriage and separation.
Assessing the legal basis for the divorce.

Representing the client before the competent Greek courts.
