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.
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.

I have had such a positive outcome. My solicitor respected everything I wanted in the family law case and guided me throughout the whole process. Emails and calls were answered within 24 hours. Kept very professional throughout. Everything was explained clearly, I was informed of everything step by step. I would highly recommend to anyone that is going through family court matters.

I cannot thank Ms. Charmaine Stobie at LKW Solicitors enough for her exceptional support during the past six months of my two years ongoing family court case as Pursuer for contact with my daughters. Ms Stobie and Mss Wall combined advocacy, representation provided better very needed outcomes initial motions was initiated. Ms Opemipo Yusuf support, guide and advise to present best my case helped me to communicate more efficiently. More recently, Ms Stobie advocacy is already having a profound and positive impact on my children’s lives and their rights but also on my health and wellbeing. Ms Stobie exceptional qualities combine legal expertise with genuine care, advocating with precision, compassion, and determination. I feel heard, supported, and empowered to keep fighting for what’s right. Truly exceptional representation — highly recommended.

Tagged solicitor Deborah Bailey
Deborah was a pleasure to deal with honest and upfront in regards to my divorce and the pitfalls I had to face, her professionalism shone through from the moment I met her (previous experience had). I highly recommend Gowen and Stevens especially Deborah Bailey whom I can only praise. I give a special mention to the other voice behind the phone Caroline whom was always helpful, pleasant with nothing being a problem I would say you spoke with a smile. Thankyou both for your help.
