családjogról

Családjog is the branch of Hungarian law that governs relationships within a family. It covers a wide range of legal matters, including marriage, divorce, child custody, child support, adoption, and inheritance. The primary aim of family law is to protect the well-being of family members, particularly children, and to ensure fair and equitable outcomes in disputes.

Key aspects of Hungarian family law include the legal requirements for marriage, such as age and consent. Divorce proceedings are also regulated, outlining the grounds for divorce and the division of marital property. Child custody and visitation rights are determined based on the best interests of the child. Child support obligations are established to ensure financial provision for children.

Adoption laws provide a legal framework for establishing parent-child relationships for non-biological children. Inheritance law, while a broader area, often intersects with family law, particularly concerning the distribution of assets among family members upon death. The relevant legislation is primarily found in the Civil Code of Hungary. Courts play a crucial role in interpreting and applying family law principles, often mediating disputes and making decisions to resolve family conflicts.
