Child Support & Spousal Maintenance 2025
Published on 3rd September 2025
In your jurisdiction, how is child support calculated? Can the parties enter into a prenuptial agreement that contains provisions for child support? What processes are available for the enforcement of spousal maintenance orders? These and other interesting interrogatives are tackled in our new editorial production Child Support & Spousal Maintenance, which focuses on the regulation that enforces economic support for children and spouses in the event of family break-up. Introduced by Gretchen Beall Shumann from Schumann Law LLC in New York, the e-guide presents an in-depth study of the ways in which some key international jurisdictions implement maintenance payments within the ‘broken’ family, offering a detailed understanding of how provisions are distributed – either for spouses or children – ensuring the future needs of the claimants are met. In the case of child support, for instance, our contributors suggest calculating all the expenses that parents, step-parents, or guardians will be expected to face, including education, childcare, healthcare, and other needs. Cross-border awards and foreign orders applied in divorce proceedings are also addressed. We are reliably informed that family lawyers always strive for a successful reconciliation between parents, but when this cannot be achieved, this guide can serve as a welcome point of reference.
Agribusiness 2025
Published on 17th September 2025
“In the current global scenario of growing climatic, geopolitical, and economic challenges, the world is turning with concern to the issue of food security in its various fundamental aspects: availability, access, utilisation, and stability. Malnutrition, defined by the FAO as insufficient energy intake (calories) without regard to dietary quality or diversity, has worsened in recent years in virtually all regions of the globe.” Chambers & Partners is proud to present a new title dedicated to the business of agriculture, particularly affected by the recent devastating events which have destroyed important infrastructure resources, impacted food production and spread famine. The book explains how other detrimental factors such as the growth of the world population, the promotion of deglobalisation and the increased food tariffs imposed by the second Trump administration have led to higher costs for farmers, producers and consumers in several territories across the globe, but also highlights the encouraging plans by the World Trade Organisation to improve the cultivation of land and farming using more eco-friendly techniques. This is definitely a sector to watch as food security remains humanity’s primary need.
