International Family Law

‘You were fabulous. I had total confidence in you. You were as sharp as a razor and grasped complex issues very quickly.’

Your case is international if any of the following apply:

• You live abroad.
• One or both of the parties are foreign nationals living in England.
• Any assets are located outside the UK.
• You were divorced overseas but want to make an application here for financial provision.
• You or your former partner may wish to move overseas with your children.

International Family Law aspects can complicate matters. It is crucial that you seek advice from experts in the countries involved so that your decisions are made in the full knowledge of the implications of the different legal systems and laws. We organise this advice for you. Whatever your situation, Harrogate Family Law are equipped to help you.

Despite the increasing number of cases with international features, few law firms encounter them with any regularity, so you need to be certain that your solicitor has experience in this area. We have wide-ranging experience of such cases and also have links with leading family lawyers in countries around the world, so you can be assured that you will receive identical expertise from your lawyer in the other jurisdictions.
