Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1: What documents are required to initiate divorce proceedings?

Answer: The list of required documents depends on whether the divorce is by mutual consent or through litigation (contested divorce). Generally, you will need the original Marriage Certificate and the Birth Certificates of any minor children. During our initial consultation, we will prepare a precise checklist tailored to your case and draft all necessary petitions and agreements.

Question 2: Why is a legal due diligence audit essential before purchasing real estate?

Answer: While a Notary Public verifies the documents at the time of the transaction, they do not conduct an in-depth historical analysis of the property’s title. Our role is to trace the ownership history back in time and investigate hidden risks — such as third-party rights, dormant mortgages that could be reinstated, or pending litigation against the seller. This proactive approach protects you from the risk of losing the property or your investment.

Question 3: How long does it take to register a new company with the Commercial Register?

Answer: The preparation of the documents by our team takes between 1 and 2 business days. Once submitted to the Commercial Register, processing by the Registry Agency officials typically takes between 24 and 48 hours, depending on the current workload of the Agency.

Question 4: Can I change my legal name simply because I do not like it?

Answer: The law requires the existence of ‘important circumstances’ to justify a name change — for example, if the name is ridiculous, disgraceful, or if the individual has become widely known in society by a different name. During a consultation, we will analyze your motives to assess your chances of success in court and to build a robust strategy for the legal proceedings.
