Law firms ranked by client reviews

Overseas Divorce covers the recognition and practical consequences of divorces granted outside the English jurisdiction. It encompasses how an English court treats a foreign decree for divorce, when a divorce is valid in England, and how the parties’ rights to property, finances and children are affected in England after such a decree. A solicitor in this area advises on whether a foreign divorce can be recognised, whether their client remains married, and what steps are required to secure or challenge a foreign decree within English courts. The work often hinges on domicile, the validity of the foreign order, and any consequential English orders that must be sought or avoided.
