4worldlovers: Thanks to Chlup Legal Services’ expertise, not only did I win at first instance, but the appeal as well! Dr. Chlup is very ethical in his work and always acted in MY best interest. Out of the 7 lawyers I had contacted, Dr. Chlup was the only professional who really understood all issues and who really cared.


Dr. Chlup provided me with invaluable advice during my divorce proceedings, enabling me to navigate the dire straits I was in during this very difficult period of my life. The level of engagement and proactive thinking was par excellence. I strongly recommend Dr. Chlup’s legal services to anyone in need of a truly professional solicitor.

I was fortunate to come across the Chlup Legal Services website, searching for a lawyer in Switzerland to help with my divorce process which involved complicated international elements. Dr. Richard Chlup proved to be more than a competent and knowledgeable attorney, always a phone call away. The response time was always quick, and the skilled guidance was to the point.

Going through a divorce is difficult even without having to face critical life decisions regarding child custody and support, and asset and property division.

Even though every divorce is as unique as the persons involved, there are several major issues you can expect to arise after the legal procedure starts.

If you are at home with the children and your spouse works – you will likely get to keep them. Your spouse will then have the children every second weekend and one evening a week (unless the kids are very young). If both you and your spouse work 80-100%, you will potentially get shared custody. And no – immoral behavior, cheating, occasional recreational drug use, or even the fact that he (or she) can’t change diapers will not change the court’s decision.

Generally, alimonies follow the child. It doesn’t matter who is to blame for the divorce. If you are a millionaire whose spouse hasn’t worked for the last 20 years, the divorce is going to be painfully costly as you will pay to keep up their living standards.

Pensions are shared, both first and second pillar. No judge will accept a deal that is much different.

It’s quite simple – all assets and properties you have acquired after the marriage will get split in half. I know, it often doesn’t seem fair. Of course, what you had already owned or acquired before your marriage, as well as any inheritance you got, will not get split. However, there might be other things to consider, such as the potential increase in the value of the property you owned before marriage.

At the separation stage the car usually goes to whoever needs it most – to whoever really needs it to get to work every day. The rental apartment usually goes to a parent that keeps the child. But, if you both work and your child is shared (or there is no child in the picture), both the car and the rental place will probably go to whoever “needs them most.” As usual, the devil is in the details.

Feel free to reach out and inquire about the potential outcomes for your specific situation.

Can I talk my spouse into something great for me - but not for him/her?
