Divorce, Family & Personal Status Lawyer in Lebanon
Michel Eid Law Firm assists individuals and families with divorce, separation and other family and personal-status matters in Lebanon, including clients living abroad. Every family file depends on its own facts and on the regime applicable to it, so we begin with a paid consultation in which we review your situation and explain what can realistically be done and in what order.
Remote consultation — up to 30 minutes, USD 100. Paid before the appointment.
How the firm can assist
Areas we are most often asked about. Ongoing representation and complex matters are quoted after review.
Initial assessment of your situation
A structured review of your family or personal-status matter, so you understand the options open to you before committing to any step.
Divorce, separation and personal-status questions
Answers to the questions clients most often bring us about divorce, separation or their own family file, within the scope of the applicable Lebanese regime.
Documents and paperwork
Drafting, reviewing or checking family-related documents, declarations and powers of attorney within our standard document scope.
Representation where appropriate
Where instructed, representation before the competent Lebanese authorities in suitable matters — scope and fee by quotation.
Overlap with succession
Where a family matter also touches an estate, we explain how the two files relate before you decide how to proceed.
Remote handling for clients abroad
Consultations by video or phone, and follow-up in Lebanon within the scope of a power of attorney signed where you live.
For clients outside Lebanon
You do not need to travel to Beirut to discuss a family or personal-status matter. We consult remotely in Arabic, French or English, and can act in Lebanon within the scope of a power of attorney signed abroad. The first consultation is paid and remote.
