International Divorce Solicitors

You or your spouse may not live in England or Wales. You may have recently moved here. There may also be a choice of countries where to divorce. Different countries can adopt different approaches when dealing with financial matters or children. This can be a very important consideration and specialist legal advice from an international divorce solicitor or family lawyer will be needed. In those cases, you will need specialist international divorce advice as to the best way forward in your particular case.

Whilst the law in England and Wales is the same irrespective of your background, if you are Asian, there are usually additional factors that require consideration. Our international divorce solicitors have an abundance of experience in assisting Asian families during the divorce process.

Some of the issues that arise are:

• the return of jewellery, dowry and Mahr
• the validity of religious marriages, such as a Nikah, and of divorces, such as Talaqs and Khul’as, that have taken place in the UK or abroad
• forced marriages
• arranged marriages
• the financial applications where there have been divorces overseas
