Marital regime counseling

Marital regime counseling

Choosing (or failing to choose) a marital regime in France is one of the most important patrimonial decisions for a couple. It will determine what assets each person owns during the marriage, and how they will be distributed in case of divorce or death.

DKN can help international couples understand French marital regimes so as to choose the one most suited to their situation and goals. For US citizens married to non-resident aliens, the marital regime will impact how US taxable income, gifts and estates are calculated.
