Petra Šatavová is an attorney with over fifteen years of experience, specializing exclusively in family law throughout her entire legal career. She focuses in particular on matters of matrimonial property law, divorce proceedings, child custody and support, the division of marital property, and cross-border family law cases.
In her practice, she emphasizes amicable and constructive conflict resolution—most of the cases she handles result in negotiated agreements. Since 2013, she has also been a registered mediator, which allows her to incorporate out-of-court dispute resolution methods directly into her legal practice.
Before entering the field of advocacy, Petra gained a strong professional foundation through many years of experience in a notarial office. After successfully passing the notarial examination, she specialized in matrimonial property law as well as inheritance law.
As part of her professional and personal development, she has completed several therapy-oriented training programs, including crisis intervention training. She frequently draws on these skills to communicate effectively in emotionally charged situations and to support her clients in the sensitive context of family law. She has also worked in the field of child protection in cooperation with the Czech non-profit organization Linka bezpečí (Child Safety Line).
Petra is currently a member of the international professional organizations Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC) and the International Society of Family Law (ISFL).
She speaks Czech, English, Hungarian, and Slovak.
