About minors in case of divorce
Family Law in Panama allows for a custody and parenting agreement between the parties before presenting the divorce, if there are minors involved.

Guardianship, Parenting and Education of Minors and the Communication and Visiting Regulations
When the parents do not live together, an agreement will be made between them regarding the custody, upbringing, communication and visiting regime as long as it does not affect the best interests of the child.
If there is no agreement of the parents or there is an issue with the material or moral interests of the child, the situation must be resolved by the competent authority.
Among the most common conflicts are the prohibition of visitation or communication with children.
Alimony
It is the obligation that arises between people because of kinship to meet the food needs in favor of those who do not have the ability to cover their needs themselves, this may be the spouse, parents (ancestry) or descendants (children).
There is an obligation between spouses, from parents to children, from children to parents and in favor, even of siblings.
