Divorce, support, custody, and inheritance combine a high emotional burden with technical rules that change by state \u2014 each Mexican state has its own civil or family code. Our task is twofold: protecting our client&#8217;s rights and steering the conflict toward stable solutions, favoring settlement over trial when that serves the family.<\/p>\n<h2>Divorce and its effects<\/h2>\n<p>Since <strong>no-fault divorce<\/strong> was adopted in Mexico City and most states, proving grounds is no longer necessary: one spouse&#8217;s will suffices. What remains complex are the effects: liquidating the marital property regime, child and spousal support, economic compensation for the spouse who ran the household, and custody and visitation arrangements. A well-negotiated comprehensive settlement avoids years of subsequent disputes.<\/p>\n<h2>Support, custody, and estates<\/h2>\n<p>Child support is set under the proportionality principle: the payer&#8217;s means and the recipient&#8217;s needs, with automatic updates. Custody is always decided under the <strong>best interests of the child<\/strong>, a constitutional (article 4) and treaty-based principle that also governs visitation. In inheritance matters, we handle both planning \u2014 wills and trusts \u2014 and probate proceedings, testate and intestate.<\/p>\n<p><em>This content is informational and does not constitute legal advice.
