Josef Alkatout has contributed to the Swiss chapter in Family Law of the 2025 International Comparative Legal Guide (ICLG).

This chapter provides in-depth insights into some of the most pressing issues in family law, including Divorce, Financial Settlements on Divorce, Marital Agreements, Cohabitation and the Rights of Unmarried Families, Child Maintenance, Parental Responsibility and Custody, as well as cross-border matters related to children.

Structured in a question-and-answer format, the chapter offers a comparative analysis of family law across 18 different jurisdictions, with identical questions allowing to easily compare complex legal issues on a global scale.

This edition has been published in collaboration with Miles Preston, with the carefully curated questions developed by Marcus Dearle.
