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.

I contacted alsters kelly when my children were taken away for being in a domestic abusive relationship and other reasons,Lisa Blizzard was my solicitor and she was brilliant. She is very professional and informative.She is very professional in dealing with issues and believed me from the start about everything. She made me feel so at ease and made things easy to understand. Very efficient and kept in touch with any updates all the way through . Would definitely recommend this this firm and Lisa is a credit to the company. I can't thank her enough for helping me to get my children back home where they belong.x
