Careful child relocation
How to serve the best interest of the child during relocation and divorce.
An interesting area of the law!
With the summer holidays almost over, many family law lawyers will receive calls from parents whose children do not return after the holidays. Or parents who decide they want to return with their children to their country of origin.
Many lawyers will have to inform their clients about the law and the Hague Convention on Child Abduction. They will negotiate the return of the children, or dicuss detailed international parenting plans. And they will all have the best interests of the children at heart.
In this newsletter, you will read the latest news on this interesting area of the law. Among others: our new country page on India, many lawyers sharing their knowledge on this subject on social media, the Forum in South Africa on the Grave Risk exception and 3 courses to register for.
