Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Divorce with an International Angle, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Divorce with an international angle covers cases where a marriage is dissolved and foreign elements matter, such as jurisdiction, recognition of a foreign divorce, or assets and children moving across borders. A solicitor in this area helps with issuing or defending petitions where one party lives abroad, or where foreign divorce decrees must be recognised or registered in England and Wales. They also handle cross‑border financial settlement issues, child arrangements with overseas elements, and enforcement of foreign orders in English courts.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor identifies which country’s rules apply to the divorce petition, coordinates service and timing across borders, and uses instruments such as the Matrimonial Causes Act and international instruments (for example, the Brussels IIa Regulation historically, and Hague conventions) to secure recognition or enforcement. They draft and negotiate consent orders, apply for or respond to overseas orders, and liaise with foreign lawyers, Central Authority units, and UK government bodies when needed to protect the client’s interests and ensure enforceability of orders in England and Wales.

Frances Bentley

Tagged solicitor Frances Bentley

Frances Bentley turned out to be one of my lifetimes best pieces of luck. I say this as my experience with Frances started via an internet search for `best family lawyer` and up popped the name Frances Bentley of McAlister. That was the lucky element of my experience and the rest I would summarise as a highly professional, value for money and objective management of a complex case . Plus France was a delight to work with as her mind is Frances best asset. Why do I say this? Frances listened and learnt well as mine was a complex case involving international legal jurisdictions and multiple assets in both the UK and Japan. Frances adapted quickly her knowledge of the UK family law to my case and fully engaged in getting up to speed with the legal implications of Japan family law, which at best is challenging. Frances has a trap door memory and this proved priceless in recalling both my specific facts over an 18 month period and case law on the hoof when challenged by judges during hearings. I should add that the entirety of my case was held across the Covid period and as such all hearings and meeting were online, again another element managed very well across multiple time zones. Frances is professionally well connected with learned barristers and if your case requires it, you can trust Frances to pair you with the right representation. Divorce isnt easy but Frances put a human face to a challenging time of life and I`m grateful for Frances`s insightful leadership, thought provocation, legal navigation and fantastic listening skills. Thank you Frances.

Bilal Raza

Tagged solicitor Bilal Raza

I had a very positive experience with Bilal Raza at BW Solicitors in Ilford, who handled my legal application. From the beginning, Bilal was calm, understanding and professional. He took the time to understand my situation and always focused on what was best for me, without unnecessarily complicating the case. He explained the process clearly, handled everything very smoothly, and kept me updated throughout, which gave me a lot of reassurance during what could otherwise have been a stressful time. I really appreciated his straightforward and supportive approach and the way he managed the entire process from start to finish. I would highly recommend Bilal Raza to anyone looking for professional and reliable legal support with a family matter. Thank you, Bilal, for making the whole process as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Debra LowyTracey Carney

Tagged solicitors Debra Lowy and Tracey Carney

My divorce was unexpected within months of moving abroad and it severely affected my metal health. I wasn’t born in the UK, so without my family and traumatised, I made 20 enquires to law firms across the UK. From the first moment I spoke to Evolve, I felt compassion and understanding of my complicated case and poor mental health. I was matched with Debra Lowry and she is absolutely brilliant. Her expertise, attention to detail, patience and professionalism and ability to understand and relate to me, was beyond my expectation. Debra handled and outsmarted all the divorce tactics thrown at me, even when outside of family law and secured an excellent settlement for me. Her assistants Sarah and Tracey were also exceptional and I felt so close the team, as my wellbeing and keeping costs down was always their top priority. I highly recommend Evolve.

Gemma Stevens

Tagged solicitor Gemma Stevens

At what was the most difficult time of my life Gemma Stevens of Nash and Co provided not only a sympathetic ear but a too the point reality check and sage advice all delivered in a kind and considered manner which helped me to focus and deal with situation i was in. She was supportive and ready to deal with the situation as far as it needed to go. Her colleagues were equally good in their own fields of expertise.

Dean  Gallacher

Tagged solicitor Dean Gallacher

Hi Let me begin by saying the work for me that Dean Gallagher has done has been fiat class. The practice itself seems extremely focused on speed and communication. Personally I’m from a construction background so it’s been extremely refreshing for everything to be explained so clearly. Regardless of anything else I cannot fault the work the staff have put in. Thank you.
