Family law is a set of legal rules and principles that govern family relationships, including marriage, parentage, blood or in-laws, adoption, guardianship, and extramarital union between a man and a woman. These legal norms regulate the personal legal and property relations of family members, as well as their relations with third parties.
Matrimonial law includes regulations governing marriage and marital relations, i.e. the procedure and prerequisites for establishing and terminating marriage, marital relations in connection with marriage, and the legal consequences of the termination of marriage. Furthermore, the extramarital union of a woman and a man also falls under family law. A very important part of family law is the legal relationship between parents and children, as well as measures to protect the rights and well-being of children, which contain the essence of the relationship between parents and children.
The family law also regulates the family support institute, which is based on the basic principles of family law: the principle of solidarity, mutual respect, and assistance of all family members.
Property relations in family law include legal rules that regulate the property and obligatory relations between spouses, common-law partners, and partners, as well as between partners and third parties.
