Salam, to the muslims ppl and  I hope guidance of ALLAH finds the non-muslim ppl. 
I wonder has any american who has had co-ownership of property in Morocco been able to get a Moroccan Power of Attorney to represent them.
in the selling of jointly owned property. 
The US embassy suggest legal papers be written in USA courts. And then sent to the Moroccan court via a Moroccan attorney.
My question is how to determine the reliability of Moroccan lawyers. We all know bribery is a major activity amoung the ppl in Morocco.
Giving power to sign papers to a Moroccan attorney is a big thing.  Has anyone had success in this business  in Fez.

Hi yes we have had experience and currently have a consultant company in Morocco marrakech.



As long as you use a reputable law first fraud should not be an issue. It all depends on how you want to structure everything.

Please feel to private message if you like

All property sells are not in the family courts'  jurisdiction.  And the family courts' have not rulings on the division of property during Talqa.

Hello,

What papers are you referring to when you say that the US embassy suggest legal papers be written in USA courts. And then sent to the Moroccan court via a Moroccan attorney.
My question is how to determine the reliability of Moroccan lawyers.
I guess you have different matters here (judicial partition + exequátur of a divorce maybe), but as the previous member said.
It is preferable to contact a law firm and if possible meet the partner, or at least require to have everything confirmed in writing from the scope of work to the detailed fees and expenses to be incurred.

You can check and contrast more than one.
The judicial partition of property takes considerable time as a general rule.

Special circumstance of divorce will require" executor" ,procedures. That must be filed on the Office of Ministry of the Interior.   Normally, divorce is the dissolution of the marriage and consideration of the children,only. So often women in Morocco do not have a legalized part of the property obtained during the marriage.  Say, for example a house is bought during the marriage.  But ,more than likely, the wife will not be entitled to any of that property, in the event of divorce.
  On some occasions the husband will write his wife on the title at the time of purchase.  And should a divorce become imminient ,the wife can use the Executive procedure to bring the divorce papers from her  foreign court of origin to the Moroccon Court for a hearing.
