Habitual residence covers where a person actually lives in a way that reflects their settled, ordinary place of living for the purposes of private international law. In England, solicitors advise on cross‑border family and contact matters, determine which jurisdiction applies for issues like child custody and relocation, gather and present evidence of where a person normally resides, and liaise with the courts and tribunals to argue which forum should hear a case. This work shapes who makes decisions about a person’s welfare and rights when international elements are involved.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decisive factor is where a person normally resides, which can control which court or tribunal hears the case and which law applies. A solicitor will gather residency evidence, draft affidavits, liaise with local authorities and the other party, and ensure timely applications under private international law and related family statutes. Timelines and the potential for cross‑border enforcement or recognition of orders can be critical if residency changes.

Adeeba Bashir

Tagged solicitor Adeeba Bashir

I have been during business with this excellent firm for over 10 years. It was the first time I was assigned to Adeeba who I engaged to take on breach of contract action. This action had a particular complication as it involved jurisdictional issues, but if didn't phase Adeeba as she was adept at every turn. Her advice was always sound on point and timely which eventually led to an excellent outcome for me. I recommend the Eaton Smith firm and if you are looking for one with excellent experience in litigation, then I would gladly recommend Adeeba Bashir, she is a great asset to her company and to the profession. Five (5) stars.
