Divorce Gdańsk - divorce attorney

The primary reason is the specialized knowledge possessed by a competent divorce attorney. Many documents or expressions may be incomprehensible to someone who does not deal with law on a daily basis. It is not worth taking risks, as all agreements have implications for the daily lives of the spouses and often concern their children as well. Therefore, it is advisable for a lawyer to clarify any ambiguities for us.

Another reason is the ability to suggest specific solutions that a divorce attorney knows not only from education but also from experience. They know how to act in disputes that arise during the proceedings, and a timely response can help reach an agreement. Our specialists, having participated in numerous divorce proceedings, have learned the effectiveness of action. They understand the reactions that their clients may encounter from their spouses and strive to prevent any misunderstandings. Therefore, it is worth relying on the experience that the divorce attorneys in Gdańsk from our law firm can boast, who know almost everything about divorce. At the same time, they are aware that every family situation is unique and requires an individual approach.

We cannot overlook another issue, which is the emotions accompanying the entire process. Divorce cases are often conducted, so for our lawyers in Gdańsk, they do not pose a difficulty. However, we recognize that the parties to the proceedings are bound by strong emotions, which do not facilitate rational decision-making. For this reason, it is beneficial to seek professional, objective support, which the best divorce lawyer can provide. In serious matters such as asset division and often the establishment of a child custody schedule, it is not advisable to leave room for emotions and advice from friends or family members. The person handling the case should not be biased. During the divorce proceedings, the lawyer becomes one of the closest individuals to us, thus trust and the assurance that our interests will be represented in accordance with professional ethics are crucial.

How else can a divorce attorney from our law firm in Gdańsk assist you? They will provide support already at the stage of preparing the divorce petition. If the client expresses such a desire, we can file the document on their behalf. If necessary, we will also assist in drafting a child custody arrangement request or a petition for alimony. With our help, clients can prepare a post-divorce asset division request.

Divorce Lawyer Gdańsk - How long does a divorce take and how much does it cost?

Every divorce process is different, so both the duration and costs vary depending on the specific situation. How much does a divorce with a lawyer cost? Every decision made by the spouses affects the course and costs of the case. The simplest situation is a divorce without fault determination, where no children are involved in the marriage. Such a process can be concluded even at the first hearing. This solution is possible if the parties to the proceedings mutually agree on it. The situation is somewhat more complicated when the divorce involves determining the fault of one of the parties. There is also the possibility of a divorce being granted due to the fault of both spouses, and such a process can be considered the most complex, as accusations are raised against the other spouse. If these are confirmed, such a ruling may be issued. Divorce cases can last from several months to several years!

How much does a divorce with a divorce lawyer in Gdańsk cost? Among the financial expenses that the client will be obliged to bear, the following fixed costs are mentioned:

• a court fee of 600 PLN, paid by the person filing for divorce,
• a stamp duty for the power of attorney if the party is represented by a lawyer or legal counsel in court,
• the lawyer's or legal counsel's fee, which is determined individually.

Additionally:

• a court fee for asset division (300 PLN if agreed, 1000 PLN if disputed),
• a court fee for a request to evict a spouse from a jointly occupied dwelling (200 PLN)

The court decides who will bear the costs of the court proceedings during the hearing. According to the general principles adopted in the Civil Code, all costs are borne by the party that loses the case.

Before meeting with a divorce attorney in our law firm in Gdańsk, it is worth considering the answer to the fundamental question, namely, what are our expectations. The most important issues concern child custody, asset division, and housing. It is advisable to prepare questions to which we want to know the answers. Clients most often need advice on whether it is worth seeking alimony for themselves or their children and whether a divorce with fault determination is a better option. After assessing the specific situation, our advisors can provide comprehensive answers to all your questions, and if there are any doubts, they will want to know the specifics.

If necessary, an experienced divorce lawyer Gdańsk from our law firm will request specific documents, help fill them out, and indicate the evidence that should be presented in the case. This primarily includes witness statements, bills, medical or police documents, account statements, and private correspondence.

Common Issues Raised During Divorce Proceedings - Divorce Lawyer Gdańsk

Divorce always involves psychological burden and is a source of stress. The situation usually becomes even more complicated when children are involved in the marriage. This is one of the issues that our lawyers will help resolve during divorces in Gdańsk. The court will indicate in the judgment how child custody should be handled. The decision regulates the parents' contact with the child, participation in making important decisions, and specifies the costs that the spouses are obliged to bear. Finding a satisfactory solution for each party is not easy, but for the court, the sole basis for making a decision in this case is the child's welfare. The best solution is an amicable agreement between the parents on the details. If no agreement can be reached, the court decides the future of the minors. The judgment specifies whether parental authority after divorce will belong to:

• both parents,
• one parent, with the other parent's rights limited to specific tasks,
• one parent, with the other parent's authority limited or revoked (or both).

Given the complex issues, it is worth seeking professional support from a lawyer from our law firm in Gdańsk, who knows everything about divorce where children are also involved.

There are situations where the court's judgment is not satisfactory for one of the parties to the proceedings. In such cases, there is an option to file an appeal, as a result of which the court of the second instance re-examines the case (concerning a specific scope and allegations). The outcome of divorce appeals depends, among other things, on raising the appropriate allegations and adequately justifying them. For this reason, it is advisable to entrust the case to a professional, such as a divorce lawyer who has already handled the entire case, as they are familiar with all its details. This increases our chances of success and also reduces the stress associated with the difficult situation. However, before filing an appeal, one must request the court to justify the judgment within 7 days of its announcement. The appeal is filed with the court that heard the case, which then serves it to the opposing party and delivers the files to the court of the second instance. There is no possibility of expanding the claim or presenting new claims. How do divorce appeals end? There are several possibilities:

• dismissing the appeal if it is found to be unfounded,
• annulling the proceedings in a specific scope and referring it back for reconsideration in the first instance court,
• upholding the appeal, which will result in changing the contested judgment, annulling it, or dismissing the proceedings.

A competent divorce attorney will become not only a source of knowledge for you but also support during this stressful time. Therefore, it is worth choosing a divorce lawyer whom we trust and who will comprehensively handle our case. We encourage you to contact our specialists!
