Solicitor for Family Law in Tarxien

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 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 spouse and I in Malta are separating and we disagree about where our two children should primarily live going forward. We haven’t been able to reach an agreement between ourselves. How does the Maltese legal system actually decide something like this when the parents can’t agree?

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 in Malta are getting divorced, and beyond dividing our assets, I’m concerned about how our joint debts, including a mortgage and a couple of loans, will actually be dealt with. Does the divorce process address this, or does it only cover assets?

I have a child with my former partner in Malta, but we were never married. Now that we’ve separated, I’m concerned about what legal rights I actually have as the father regarding custody, access, and involvement in decisions about our child, given we don’t have the same married status.

My spouse and I got married in Malta several years ago under the default community of acquests, but our financial circumstances have changed significantly and we’d now like to change our matrimonial property regime. Is this actually possible once you’re already married, or is that decision locked in permanently at the time of marriage?

I’m getting married in Malta soon and I have some assets I owned before the relationship that I’d like to protect in case things don’t work out. Is a prenuptial agreement actually a recognised thing under Maltese law, or does Malta not really have this concept?
