This work covers urgent cross‑border removal or retention of a child under the Hague Convention, where actions are pursued in English courts to secure return, access, or protective orders. A solicitor helps with the initial assessment, collects and inventories evidence, applies to the family courts (often the High Court or Family Court) for orders, negotiates with the other parent, and coordinates with the UK Central Authority and any relevant public bodies. Proceedings are time sensitive and involve international cooperation.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key instrument is the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, plus domestic rules in the Family Procedure Rules. A solicitor defends or advances orders to secure prompt return or access, manages evidence highlighting risk or stability, and navigates international liaison. Crucial steps include filing petitions, arranging urgent hearings, and safeguarding the child's future arrangements while addressing potential appeals or related welfare considerations.

Tagged solicitor Abigail Eriksson-Lee

The service I have received from Abigail and her team has been second to none. What particularly stood out was Abigail's calm and compassionate approach that helped me navigate even the most complex challenges. She keeps the children front and centre of the case whilst simultaneously navigating the intricacies of family law. I am sincerely grateful for her expert guidance and honest approach over what has often been an immensely challenging time.
