How is real estate divided in a Shenzhen divorce?

Pre-marital personal property belongs to the individual; jointly-owned post-marital property is generally split equally. Cases involving parental contributions or pre-marital mortgages need case-by-case analysis by a professional family lawyer.

Is a will valid without notarization?

Yes. Holographic, typed, audio-recorded and notarized wills are all valid; notarization is not a validity requirement, but formal requirements under the Civil Code must be met.

How long does a divorce lawsuit take?

Summary procedure: within 3 months; ordinary procedure: within 6 months. If one party contests, a second filing is usually needed, totaling about 6-12 months.

What is the order of inheritance?

First order: spouse, children, parents. Second order: siblings, grandparents, maternal grandparents. Testate succession follows the will; intestate succession follows the statutory order.

Can I claim damages for adultery?

Under Article 1091 of the Civil Code (bigamy, cohabitation with another, etc.) you may claim divorce damages; general adultery can evidence breakdown and affect property division.
