How it works
A first conversation, in person or by video, to understand the situation and what matters to you. All under confidentiality.
The options explained — agreement, mediation or litigation — with timelines and fees in writing before starting.
The lawyer who listened to you handles the case, with regular updates and direct contact on WhatsApp.
Principles
Mediation and settlement come before litigation, whenever they are fair.
Family cases do not go to social media or the courthouse corridor.
Every step explained without jargon, so the decision is yours.
Common questions

After the first conversation, with a written proposal. Agreements and uncontested divorces have a fixed fee; contested cases combine a fixed amount with installments per stage.
Yes, by video call, throughout the state of Santa Catarina. Hearings in other districts are attended in person when needed.
Yes. In situations involving health, mobility or when privacy requires it, the conversation can take place at your home.
