Family matters,
and the clock behind them.

This deck walks the family portal in the order you meet it. Its spine is a date: matrimonial property carries a three-year window under Article 14 of Law 232/1991, and the portal computes it from the trigger event, shows it on the matter, and says plainly that mediation does not stop it running.

Where the family portal opens.

Divorce, matrimonial property, custody, maintenance.

The portal names its own remit on the way in — divorce, matrimonial property under Law 232/1991, custody, maintenance — and lists the matters beneath it. Each card carries the matter type and, while a case is early, the stage it has reached.

§02 · Opening a matter

Seven kinds of family matter.

Named the way the Family Court names them.

The dialog opens on the type, and the list is specific: property regulation under Law 232/1991 is not the same matter as a divorce petition, and spousal maintenance is not child maintenance. Open any tile to see the second step, and the questions that type will carry.

§04 · Details — Στοιχεία

A different form for every type.

Thirteen questions for property. Five for custody.

Details is not one form with optional fields — it is the schema of the type you chose. A property regulation asks thirteen questions, including the trigger event that starts the Article 14 clock; a custody application asks five, and none of them is a date the law counts from.

Article 14 window recomputed

trigger:

Three years from the decree absolute of 14 March 2026 — the window closes 14 March 2029, and the header banner now counts to it.

Three years from the annulment — the window is computed from the annulment date recorded above.

Long separation of three years or more is the trigger; the window is computed from the separation date rather than a decree.

Brought during the marriage on risk of dissipation, so there is no decree to count from — the matter is driven by the risk, and by any freezing order.

No trigger chosen yet, so no window is computed. The banner will stay blank until one is.

Counsel verifies. The portal states the provision it is counting under and leaves the judgement where it belongs.

Only property carries the clock

Switch to divorce or custody and the Article 14 machinery disappears, because those matters do not run on it. The form is the type’s own schema, not a shared one with fields hidden.

Direct and indirect contribution

The field is written for the law it serves: contribution to the increase in the other spouse's property includes the care of children and the running of the household, and the form asks for both in one place.

Mareva, on the same form

Whether a freezing order is sought or in force, and the two dates that matter — when it was granted, and the inter partes return.

§05 · Intake — Ανάθεση

The conversation, then the checklist.

Record, upload or type. Review before anything runs.

Family intake is a long conversation with a distressed client, and almost none of it arrives on paper. Record it, correct the transcript, and what comes out is a preliminary assessment, an engagement letter and the document checklist this matter type needs.

§06 · Pre-Action — mediation

Mediation, and the clock that ignores it.

Law 62(I)/2019, tracked session by session.

Family mediation is voluntary, and an agreement can be put to the Family Court for ratification. But on a property claim the Article 14 window keeps running while you mediate — and the portal states that in the clearest terms it can, at the moment the mediation fails.

Our position

The client’s contribution is both direct and indirect: the deposit and the monthly repayments on the Nicosia apartment from 2012 to 2019, and the care of two children throughout. Under Law 232/1991 the indirect contribution counts toward the increase in the other spouse’s property, and the sole name on the title does not answer it.

Realistic settlement frame

Contact is already agreed and should be recorded rather than reopened — the children’s arrangements are the primary criterion and they are working. On property, a realistic landing is a share of the increase reflecting the documented repayments, with the apartment retained by the client and the difference equalised in cash.

BATNA

If mediation fails, the alternative is an application to the Family Court: cost, delay, and disclosure of both sides’ finances. And on this matter type the three-year window under Article 14 keeps running throughout — there are 214 days left of it.

Next move

Put the agreed contact terms in writing at the next session, and table a figure for the property increase supported by the repayment schedule. If there is no movement by the third session, issue.

Grounded on

Law 232/1991Law 216/1990 Law 62(I)/2019 — where the legal material is thin the note says so rather than inventing a citation. Counsel verifies the final text.

The sentence that protects the client

“Mediation does not stop or suspend the clock.” A family practice can spend eight months mediating in good faith; the portal makes sure nobody discovers the consequence of that afterwards.

Six statuses, because they differ

Not proposed, proposed, ongoing, agreed, failed, refused. Refused and failed are not the same conversation with the court.

§07 · Pre-Action — interim orders

The orders that cannot wait for trial.

Six kinds, five statuses, one calendar entry each.

Family litigation is decided in the interim as much as at trial: who lives in the home, who the children are with, what is paid this month, and whether the assets are still there. Each application is recorded with its status, and a hearing date is written to the calendar — replaced, never accumulated.

Interim Orders Note

Three orders tracked · Α. Α. ν. Β. Β.

Relief sought

Interim maintenance of €900 monthly pending final orders; continued exclusive use of the family home; and a freezing order over the Nicosia apartment and the two accounts identified in the disclosure.

Legal basis

Maintenance and the property claim under Law 232/1991; any arrangement for the children under Law 216/1990, where the best interests of the child govern. The freezing order is tested on the four elements: a strong arguable case, a real risk of dissipation, the balance of convenience, and a cross-undertaking in damages.

Evidence & affidavit

The Affidavit of Means with three months of statements supports the maintenance figure. For the freezing order the affidavit must exhibit the transfers out of the joint account after the separation, and the estate-agent listing of the apartment.

Urgency & procedure

The listing is the urgency: apply ex parte, with the inter partes return date fixed at the same hearing. The maintenance application proceeds by summons.

Next steps

Obtain the certified account history before applying; settle the cross-undertaking with the client in writing; then file. Counsel verifies the final text.

The Mareva test, spelled out

  • •A strong arguable case
  • •A real risk of dissipation
  • •Balance of convenience
  • •A cross-undertaking in damages

Ex parte first, then the inter partes return — the two dates the Details tab already holds.

Replaced, never accumulated

Change a hearing date and the calendar entry moves. Complete or discharge the order and its entry clears, so the diary never fills with dead hearings.

§08 · Assets — Περιουσιακά

The inventory, built from the disclosure.

Extracted, flagged for review, and yours to accept.

Matrimonial property runs on an inventory, and the inventory is buried in affidavits, statements and title deeds. The portal reads them, proposes rows marked NEW (AI) with the owner set to disputed, and waits for you to accept, edit or reject each one. It never overwrites a row you entered.

It never overwrites your row

Extraction lands as a proposal, flagged and owned by nobody until you say so. A row you typed is never replaced by something the model read.

Seven categories, four owners

Owner reads ours, theirs, joint or disputed — and disputed is the honest default for anything extracted.

§09 · Maintenance — Διατροφή

A range, and why it is that range.

Two calculations, each under its own article.

Cyprus has no statutory tariff for maintenance, and the product says so before it says anything else. What it gives you is an indicative range built from needs, means and standard of living — with the reasoning printed underneath, and the automatic escalation projected forward.

Live — switch tabs, edit a figure, then estimate

It refuses to pretend there is a formula

The disclaimer is the product's own, and it leads: no statutory tariff, the court decides on needs, means and standard of living, and every figure here is a guide.

The escalation is the useful part

An order made today is not the order in six years. Projecting the automatic increase turns a negotiation about this month into one about the whole term.

§10 · Documents — Έγγραφα

Disclosure in, inventory out.

Thirteen categories, defaulting to Affidavits.

The product names what a family file is made of: Affidavits of Means, welfare reports, medical records, school records, bank statements, valuations, marriage and birth certificates. Upload them and, on a matrimonial matter, the assets inside them are extracted for the inventory.

The disclosure becomes the inventory

On a matrimonial matter, analyzing an Affidavit of Means or a valuation proposes rows in Assets — and the toast says how many, so nobody has to go looking.

Affidavits, by default

The category picker opens on Affidavits because that is what a family practice uploads most. Small choice; saves a step every single time.

§11 · Forms & Drafts — Έντυπα

Five court documents, and when each is needed.

Every matter sees all five. The line underneath says which is yours.

Family forms are not filed like the Registrar’s: the court issues them in Greek and the lawyer drafts in Word. So the portal lists all five templates on every matter with the rule each is made under and a line saying when it applies — and gives a guided fill to the two that carry a schema, the Affidavit of Means and the Petition for Divorce.

I’m your Cyprus family-law advisor. Ask about strategy, maintenance, matrimonial property (Law 232/1991), Mareva, or limitation periods.
Scripted demonstration — the live advisor answers from the matter itself

Questions a family practitioner actually asks

What is our position on the sole-name apartment? What do we need for a freezing order? How is spousal maintenance assessed?
No. On a matrimonial-property claim the Article 14 three-year window keeps running during mediation — mediation does not stop or suspend it. On this matter the window closes in 214 days, counted from the decree absolute recorded in Details. Verify the applicable limitation before relying on this. Law 232/1991
The apartment is in the respondent’s sole name, but the claim is to a share of the increase in his property to which the client contributed — and contribution includes indirect contribution: the care of the children and the running of the household. Both are recorded in the contribution summary. Law 232/1991
Four elements: a strong arguable case, a real risk of dissipation, the balance of convenience, and a cross-undertaking in damages. On this file the disposal recorded at section 11 of the Affidavit of Means is the evidence the risk limb would be built on. Ex parte first, then the inter partes return.
There is no statutory tariff. The court weighs needs, means and the standard of living during the marriage. The calculator gives an indicative range with the reasoning attached, and projects the automatic 10% escalation every two years. Law 232/1991 art. 4
Child maintenance is assessed on the children’s needs apportioned to the parents’ means, and custody is decided on the welfare of the child. Both are separate matters from the property claim and carry their own applications. Law 216/1990
A mediated agreement can be submitted to the Family Court for ratification under Law 62(I)/2019. Until it is ratified it is an agreement, not an order. Law 62(I)/2019
On this matter I can answer from the documents, the asset inventory and the dates already computed, and I will cite the law I rely on. Anything outside family law, or outside this file, I will say I do not have.

Its prompt tells it what not to do

No civil procedure references. No invented citations. For a practice area where the wrong statute is a real risk, a narrow advisor is a safer one.

It knows the clock

The window is in the advisor's context, so a question about mediation gets an answer with 214 days in it rather than a general statement of law.

Next step

Run it on a matter
you have already closed.

Pick a finished family file — a property regulation with affidavits on it is ideal. Open it in the portal, let it read the disclosure, and see whether the window it computes, the assets it extracts and the range it estimates match what actually happened.
