Moving a child abroad without parental responsibility can be deemed as abduction and usually takes place when divorce proceedings between parents turn unpleasant. Our international family law experts can help you avoid this situation and can also provide you with the relevant guidance and advice if your child has relocated abroad.

The primary objective in child relocation cases is to ensure that the affected child is safely placed and returned. In order to meet this objective we work with Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction.  Our child custody specialists have experience in reuniting parents with their children if they have moved abroad without permission and should this have happened to you please do not hesitate to contact us for advice in relation to resolving this difficult situation.

Alternatively, if you are a parent and want to relocate abroad with your child, our specialists can assist you to obtain written permission from the other parent or anyone with parental responsibility. Without such written permission you may need to apply to the court for permission to relocate abroad with a child. This is to ensure you are not subject to having committed child abduction.
