Solicitor for Family Law in Mosta

My spouse and I in Malta are going through a divorce and I want to understand, in general terms, how property we’ve accumulated during the marriage is typically divided under Maltese law, since we didn’t sign any specific marriage contract beforehand regarding our finances.

I separated from my child’s other parent in Malta and I’ve now been offered a great job opportunity abroad. I’d like to relocate with our child, but my ex is strongly opposed. Can I just make this decision myself since I have primary care, or do I need their agreement or court approval?

My spouse and I are separating in Malta and we have one child together. I want to understand roughly how child maintenance payments are actually calculated here, since we haven’t been able to agree on a figure ourselves and I want to know what a court might consider reasonable.

My spouse and I in Malta have been living completely separately for over four years now, but they are refusing to agree to a divorce and don’t want to sign anything. Does this mean I’m simply stuck married indefinitely, or can I actually pursue a divorce without their consent?

My partner and I in Malta have been living together for several years without getting married, and we’re considering formalising some aspects of our financial arrangement through a written agreement between ourselves. Does Maltese law actually recognise or enforce this kind of cohabitation agreement, given we’re not married?

My ex and I share custody of our child in Malta, and I’ve just found out they’re planning to take our child abroad on holiday without asking me first or even informing me of the travel dates. Do I have any legal right to object or block this kind of trip?

My spouse and I in Malta have been living separately for about eight months already, but we’ve only just formally started separation proceedings, and I haven’t received any financial support from them since we split. Can maintenance be backdated to cover this earlier period we already spent apart?

I’m considering pursuing an annulment of my marriage in Malta rather than a divorce, since I believe there were serious issues present even at the time we got married. What’s actually the difference in outcome, and what would I need to show for an annulment to succeed?
