Family Law falls within the scope of Civil Law, which regulates the main aspects of this specialty. It is complemented by a series of specific laws enacted to adapt the regulation of this institution to social reality. The family lawyers at Medina Cuadros are legal experts in this area of law and are capable of assisting and advising their clients in the various situations and conflicts that arise within families, no matter how complex: from the celebration or dissolution of a marriage with people of different nationalities, to international adoption, or the rights that protect couples who, without being married, maintain a stable relationship. This includes the necessary knowledge of testamentary regulations that family lawyers must master. 

At Medina Cuadros, we have the experience necessary to advise and assist our clients in the following situations, among others:

• Marriage: The law establishes both the valid forms of celebration and the personal and economic consequences of this legal bond. It also addresses crisis situations that lead to its annulment, the separation of the couple or the dissolution of the bond, or divorce.
• Figures resembling marriage, such as common-law couples or simply unions from which, although unregulated, rights and obligations arise. International marriages and unions: we are talking about couples formed by members of different nationalities and cultures, which make up a sector within Family Law with specific regulations whose case law—increasingly common due to the exponential increase in immigration—requires the mastery of legal professionals.
• The affiliation: It is the bond between parents and children, whether marital, extramarital or adoptive, and also includes parental authority (relationship with unemancipated children).
• Guardianship: set of rules regarding the care and protection of minors or incapacitated persons who are not subject to parental authority.
• Family assets: Consisting of the set of assets, rights and obligations that must be managed and/or, where appropriate, liquidated and awarded in the event of death or dissolution of the marriage bond or separation of the de facto couple.
• Hereditary successions in the family or even family business sphere.
