Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for EU Cross Border Maintenance, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

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.

Ajantha Brabaharan

Tagged solicitor Ajantha Brabaharan

Ajantha handled my FLR(M) application as an unmarried partner, and from the moment she took it on she went through everything with me point by point. Nothing was assumed and nothing was left for me to guess at. Every time I contacted her she came back quickly, and the answers were never generic. I have dealt with a lot of lawyers in the US and in Korea over the years, and what stood out here was that she responded to my actual situation rather than reciting the rules back at me. When something was unclear she told me what it meant for me specifically. There were several points where the online system threw errors, and more than a few where the problem was simply my own mistake. I know I made her job harder than it needed to be. She never once let it show. She stayed calm, told me what to do next, and made sure I did not panic about any of it. On more than one occasion she was still helping me well outside office hours. When the decision came through she let me know straight away, before anyone else, and she sounded as pleased about it as I was. That is not something I expected from a solicitor, and after months of waiting it meant a great deal. English is not my first language and immigration rules are hard to follow even in plain English. Ajantha made the whole thing manageable. I will be applying for an extension in a few years and I would not consider going to anyone else. Sincere thank you for everything, Ajantha.

I had been struggling to find a local solicitor to arrange power of attorney for my father until a friend passed on Lucy's details. I'm so glad they did because it was an absolute pleasure working with Lucy, she went out of her way to help me and Dad before her holiday. I will definitely recommend BWK.

We had a relatively complex Powers of Attorney requirement which was completed in an efficient and accurate way. We were kept up to date with all the progress, and the process was explained to us in a clear and timely fashion.

Stephanie Buckeridge

Tagged solicitor Stephanie Buckeridge

Dealing with Stephanie Buckeridge in support of my divorce was much easier than I might have expected. Her professional advice, tempered with a supportive approach made the whole process acceptable. Her reaction to some of the requests from the other party matched my thoughts, though I was always provided with alternative approaches, along with potential consequences. I would certainly recommend Gardner Leader to others.
