Top 10 of 4,159 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.

Rachael Scowcroft

Tagged solicitor Rachael Scowcroft

Rachel was amazing during my divorce, which involved an out-of-court settlement and financial separation. I had no idea how to handle any of it, but she explained everything clearly and made sure I was fully protected. She was always available when I needed support and made a stressful situation much easier to deal with. Very supportive, informative, and professional. Highly recommend

Mr Sheikh and his team have been tremendously supportive and helpful during our case. A specialist and high-level of legal knowledge was backed with sensitivity and honesty, providing clear information and explaining options carefully. Communication was timely and easy to understand. It was a great relief to know that we were in the hands of such a caring and effective professional. We felt fully supported throughout the process and would not hesitate to recommend Mr Sheikh and Winckworth Sherwood to others. Thank you.
