Family law consulting and inheritance in Santo Domingo
At EMC Abogados y Consultores Fiscales, we offer specialized legal advice in family and inheritance law for individuals and families in Santo Domingo. We handle cases such as divorce, property division, child custody, drafting of property agreements, inheritance, wills, and estate planning. We treat each case with sensitivity, confidentiality, and full compliance with current regulations in the Dominican Republic.
Drafting of agreements under the separate property regime
We advise couples who wish to maintain their financial independence under the separation of property regime, either before marriage (prenuptial agreements) or during cohabitation.
Separation of property agreement
We draft and register agreements that define individual ownership of assets, prevent future conflicts, and enable orderly financial management. This type of document is especially recommended for couples with children, remarriages, or complex estates.
Legal assistance in divorce and property division
We provide legal representation during divorce proceedings by mutual agreement, with an emphasis on protecting family interests and asset security.
Legal advice on divorce
We accompany our clients through every stage of the process: application, notification, agreements regarding children, settlement of assets, and formalization of the judgment. We seek balanced and swift solutions.
Division of property in divorce
We evaluate and divide joint assets, applying fair criteria in accordance with the law. We draft partition agreements or intervene judicially in the event of disagreement.
Inheritance and determination of heirs
We help families plan ahead for the succession of their assets, or handle probate proceedings when a loved one has passed away.
Inheritance management
We assist in the processing of both testate and intestate inheritances, accompanying the heirs in the inventory, appraisal, acceptance, and partition of assets, as well as in obtaining certificates and notarial procedures.
Family estate planning
We design advance planning schemes that allow you to preserve your wealth and ensure its orderly transfer to the next generation. We use tools such as wills, donations, asset-only companies, and more.
Wills
We advise on and draft wills in accordance with Dominican law, ensuring that the testator’s wishes are carried out and that conflicts between heirs are avoided. We provide guidance on open, closed, or special wills, as well as on the protocol and registration with a notary.
