Cross-border maintenance deals with securing or sharing ongoing financial support for children or a former partner when one parent or party lives outside England. A solicitor practising this area helps clients identify which country’s rules apply, and how to enforce or obtain maintenance across borders under applicable laws and international cooperation frameworks. They handle applications for child support or spousal maintenance, coordinate with foreign authorities, and prepare or respond to evidence, orders, and variations in multiple jurisdictions. In practice, the work may be shaped by evolving international cooperation regimes and post-Brexit arrangements affecting cross-border enforcement.
A solicitor’s role includes drafting and lodging cross-border applications or defenses, gathering financial information, negotiating with overseas authorities, and pursuing or resisting enforcement of maintenance orders in or from the other jurisdiction. They may coordinate with the Child Maintenance Service and import or translate documentation, explain international procedures to the client, and ensure compliance with both domestic and international procedures. Complexities arise from differing jurisdictions, time limits, and the need to secure timely payments across borders.

Top service, made my process as painless as it can be, with little to no stress. Quick to reply to any emails or problems. Not living local to MCT Solicitors made no difference to my level of service.

Tagged solicitor Zoe Hewines
I would highly recommend Zoe, her professionalism, clear communication, and dedication throughout my case. From the outset, she provided straightforward advice and made sure I fully understood each stage of the process as my case wasn’t straight forward. Zoe always responds to queries and took the time to explain complex legal matters in a way that was easy to follow. I felt supported and well informed at every step, which made a potentially stressful situation much easier to manage. I can’t thank Zoe and her team enough for helping, listening and making sure I was ok when extremely stressed. Mel

Tagged solicitor Karen Simone Dovaston
I had the luxury of having Karen as my solicitor. She was amazing from beginning to end. Karen made me feel comfortable and at ease all of the time. No matter my questions, I never felt silly asking them. Karen would always respond in a respectful manner and would always respond and never leave me hanging.
