Courts and public offices for Reykjavík
Court cases from Reykjavík are heard at first instance by the Reykjavík District Court (Héraðsdómur Reykjavíkur), which sits in the town itself. Appeals go to the Court of Appeal (Landsréttur) and, in cases of general importance, to the Supreme Court (Hæstiréttur), both in Reykjavík.
Many everyday legal matters never reach court. Divorce and separation, estates of deceased persons, registration of property deeds and enforcement are handled by the District Commissioner of the Capital Region (Sýslumaðurinn á höfuðborgarsvæðinu). A lawyer can help you prepare these applications or represent you if they are disputed.
