Family Court Cyprus

Family Court

The Family Courts’ purpose is to promote conciliation in, and secure speedy settlement of, disputes relating to marriage and family affairs. Family courts hear all cases that relate to familial and domestic relationships but can also issue decisions regarding divorce cases.

In Cyprus, we have one Family Court in each district, with the exceptions of Kerynia, which is merged with the Family Court of Nicosia, and Famagusta, which is merged with the Family Court of Larnaca. The mergers occurred after the Turkish Invasion of the island in 1974.

Areas of Family Court jurisdiction:

  • Family Law and Matrimonial
  • Separation Agreements
  • Family real estate disputes
