Cross Border Divorce covers divorce proceedings where the divorce involves parties from more than one country, or where a foreign divorce order must be recognised or enforced in England and Wales. A solicitor in this area advises on where a case should be started, which law applies to matrimonial issues, and how foreign decrees are recognised in English law. The work often hinges on domicile, habitual residence, and choice of law provisions.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor handles the complex mix of private international law, including identifying the correct forum and the applicable law, obtaining foreign orders, and arranging recognition or enforcement through the appropriate courts. They work with overseas lawyers, gather documentary evidence, and navigate potential conflicts of law, standard forms, and the interaction with English and Welsh matrimonial proceedings to protect a client’s position.
