Frequently asked questions

Before agreeing on an appointment, it is natural to ask questions about the organization of the firm, the methods of consultation or the areas of expertise. Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions:

How does a first appointment work?
lineline
The first appointment lasts about 1 hour and can be done at the office, by phone or by videoconference. It allows you to analyze your situation, ask your questions and define an initial action strategy.
Do you only operate in Paris?
lineline
The firm is located in Paris 8th, but Maître de Polignac accompanies his clients throughout France, in particular in family or estate procedures. Remote consultations are frequent and fully adapted.
What types of cases do you deal with?
lineline
The firm works exclusively in family and estate law: divorces, successions, marriages, marriage contracts, parental authority, change of civil status... Highly sensitive situations or with asset issues are common.
Is a lawyer required to get a divorce?
lineline
Yes, each spouse must have their own lawyer to divorce, whether it is an amicable divorce or not. If one of the spouses refuses to hire a lawyer or to divorce, the procedure can still continue without him. In this case, he will not be able to defend his rights during the divorce.
How long does an amicable divorce last?
lineline
A divorce by mutual consent is generally faster than a contentious divorce. On average, the procedure lasts between 3 and 6 months as soon as both spouses have chosen their lawyers. This duration may vary depending on the complexity of the agreements and the speed of exchanges between the parties and the notary.
