Unilateral Divorce 12/11/2024
The unilateral procedure is available where the statutory conditions are met, even without the other spouse's agreement. Preparation should connect the facts of the marital breakdown with the evidence and clearly identify any additional orders being requested. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Unilateral Divorce 03/03/2025
Custody preparation should demonstrate how the proposed arrangements serve the child, not promise a win over the other parent. A clear care history, evidence of stability and an appropriate plan for support and contact can help explain the request. The discussion considers the child’s welfare, the evidence parents can prepare and the practical effect of the proposed arrangement. It also distinguishes direct care from continuing support and contact obligations, so the request can be assessed on its own facts.
Unilateral Divorce 17/03/2025
Debt responsibility is not determined merely by which spouse requested divorce. Loan documents, the purpose of borrowing and the benefit to the family help distinguish shared obligations from personal debt, while creditor rights must also be considered. The discussion considers the acquisition records, agreements and financial evidence that can affect the assessment. It separates ownership questions from the practical implementation of a settlement and highlights why assumptions about equal shares or liability should be checked against the facts.
Unilateral Divorce 05/03/2026
Emotional abuse in marriage represents a common yet often difficult issue to identify and prove. Many individuals experience insults, psychological control, threats, or isolation for long periods but remain uncertain whether such conduct qualifies as legal grounds for divorce. A key question therefore arises: Can emotional abuse constitute grounds for divorce under Vietnamese law? The appropriate next step depends on the level of agreement, available evidence and any issues concerning children, property or debts. Preparing a clear chronology and consistent records helps distinguish the legal questions from practical difficulties that need individual review.
Consensual Divorce 29/08/2022
Recognition of consensual divorce is a court procedure, not simply registration of a private decision. The spouses should present a genuine joint request and explain their arrangements for children and property in terms the court can assess. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Consensual Divorce 06/08/2025

Consensual Divorce 31/01/2026
Divorce cases involving foreign nationals in Vietnam are governed by a combination of family law, civil procedure law, and private international law principles. Unlike purely domestic divorces, divorce for foreigners requires careful attention to court jurisdiction, applicable law, and document legalization.

This article provides a practical legal guide to divorce for foreigners in Vietnam, including legal grounds, court competence, procedural steps, and a clear checklist of required documents. With a dedicated and professional legal team, we are committed to accompanying you throughout the entire divorce process.
Consensual Divorce 26/08/2022
A joint divorce application should accurately reflect what both spouses have agreed. It needs more than matching signatures: the terms on children, support and financial matters must be clear enough for the court to examine their legality and fairness. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Property Division 03/04/2026
In the context of global integration, it is increasingly common for married couples to own joint real estate (houses and apartments) abroad. However, when deciding to divorce, the issue of dividing real estate abroad becomes a complex legal hurdle. The biggest question often arises: Which court—Vietnamese or foreign—has jurisdiction to handle this matter? Through this article, Jurion & Partners will help you understand the regulations regarding the division of real estate abroad.
Property Division 17/08/2022
A property dispute often turns on how an asset was acquired and what the documents show. Ownership records, gifts, inheritances, contributions and financial obligations should be examined before either spouse assumes that a particular asset must be divided equally. The discussion considers the acquisition records, agreements and financial evidence that can affect the assessment. It separates ownership questions from the practical implementation of a settlement and highlights why assumptions about equal shares or liability should be checked against the facts.
Property Division 07/02/2023
A property dispute may remain after the marriage has ended. Resolving it requires a careful inventory, proof of how each asset was acquired and consideration of any earlier agreement or judgment, rather than an assumption that the divorce divided everything. The discussion considers the acquisition records, agreements and financial evidence that can affect the assessment. It separates ownership questions from the practical implementation of a settlement and highlights why assumptions about equal shares or liability should be checked against the facts.
Property Division 20/09/2022
A divorce settlement should begin by identifying the applicable property regime and distinguishing joint assets from separate ownership. Where agreement is not possible, the court examines the relevant evidence and statutory factors rather than relying only on whose name appears on a document. The discussion considers the acquisition records, agreements and financial evidence that can affect the assessment. It separates ownership questions from the practical implementation of a settlement and highlights why assumptions about equal shares or liability should be checked against the facts.
Divorce Lawyers 21/10/2022
The fastest lawful approach depends on the facts rather than a fixed service label. Clear agreement where possible, accurate documents and early attention to overseas or disputed issues can improve preparation without eliminating the court's required review. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Divorce Lawyers 16/08/2024
Advice on a unilateral divorce should begin with the actual obstacles in the case. A review of jurisdiction, the legal grounds, notice to the other spouse and the evidence for any child or financial claim helps define the work required. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.

A useful preparation file connects the legal request with the child’s actual circumstances: daily care, housing, education, relationships and support.

Divorce Counseling 02/10/2026

Divorce Counseling 11/09/2022
A support claim with international elements raises questions beyond the amount requested.
