Frequently asked questions

How is child support determined in Panama?▶

It's based on the paying parent's income and the children's actual needs. We help you calculate a fair amount and formalize it before the appropriate court.

What is the difference between custody and parental authority?▶

Custody determines who the child lives with day to day; parental authority is the set of rights and duties parents hold over their children. They can be resolved together or separately depending on the case.

What should I do if I'm experiencing domestic violence?▶

Immediate protection measures are available through Panamanian authorities. Contact us so we can guide you through the first steps.
