I have noticed a phenomenon in my immediate circle, where one person or another has a topical question about how their own or their parents' affairs will be dealt with in due course. We all inevitably grow older and our circumstances change throughout our lives. There are marriages, cohabitations, reconstitutions, births and deaths of loved ones. Many times, contacts with me have been in relation to trusts, donations, making a will or probate. Many have also asked for more help and advice on tax planning.

This is the cry Amos has wanted to answer. We want to encourage people to get their paperwork in order on time. Amos is the answer for people who are planning their lives ahead and taking a healthy care of their loved ones and themselves through planning.

LATEST NEWS

In the event of divorce, a division will be made. The division is based on the principle of dividing the matrimonial property in half or on a divorce clause.

Division in divorce in Finland

In this context, the phrase "division of property in a divorce" refers to an essential legal procedure that happens when a couple decides to end their marriage. It's the formal process of dividing up all the assets and debts that the couple has accumulated together during their marriage. This includes a wide range of things, such as: * **Real estate:** This could be the family home, holiday homes, or any other property owned. * **Financial assets:** This encompasses bank accounts, savings, investments, shares, and pensions. * **Personal belongings:** These are items like cars, furniture, jewellery, art, and other valuables. * **Debts:** It also involves allocating responsibility for any money owed, such as mortgages, loans, credit card debt, and other liabilities. The aim of property division is to ensure a fair and equitable distribution of the marital estate between the divorcing spouses. The specific rules and methods vary depending on the jurisdiction (the country or region where the divorce is taking place), but generally, courts will consider factors like: * **The length of the marriage** * **The contributions of each spouse to the marriage** (both financial and non-financial, such as childcare or homemaking) * **The financial needs and circumstances of each spouse** * **The age and health of each spouse** * **Any pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreements** The division can be achieved through agreement between the couple (often facilitated by lawyers or mediators) or, if they cannot agree, by a court decision.
