International Divorce, Custody, and Abduction

International family law matters involve unique complexities that require specialized knowledge and global perspective. Whether you’re facing divorce across borders, custody disputes involving multiple countries, or concerns about international child abduction, I have the experience to protect your rights and your children.

International Divorce

Multi-country divorces present jurisdictional challenges that can significantly impact asset division, custody arrangements, and support obligations. I handle complex international divorces involving assets and family members across borders, working with legal contacts in Europe and South America when needed to ensure comprehensive representation.

International Custody Disputes

When parents live in different countries, custody disputes become exponentially more complicated. I navigate international custody laws, including the Hague Convention, to protect your parental rights and ensure enforceable custody arrangements that serve your child’s best interests.

International Child Abduction

If your child has been wrongfully removed to another country or is being wrongfully retained abroad, immediate action is critical. I work swiftly under the Hague Convention on International Child Abduction to secure your child’s return and protect your custody rights.

Pre-Marriage Planning for International Couples

Prevention is always better than crisis management. If you’re entering a marriage with international ties—different citizenships, assets in multiple countries, or plans to live abroad—I can help you establish prenuptial agreements that clearly define property rights, custody arrangements, and jurisdictional matters. This proactive approach protects both parties and provides clarity should the marriage end, avoiding costly international legal battles later.
