MBS Family Law specialises in cases with an international element – whether this involves assets held outside England and Wales, proceedings involving foreign nationals or disputes over where children should live. 

Divorce

The choice of jurisdiction (which country can decide on the divorce and separation of assets) can be very important to international couples separating.  Where there is a possible choice of location where the divorce can be started, MBS Family Law can give advice on jurisdictional differences and assist in the swift commencement of proceedings.

Cross border divorce and family law cases are often complex and require specialist legal advice. MBS Family Law has many years of experience helping international families resolve their dispute and has strong links with a network of lawyers, financial advisors, accountants, etc across the globe which can be brought in at any time to provide specialist international advice.

Financial Settlement after an oversees divorce

MBS Family Law also acts for parties who need to seek a further financial settlement in England and Wales after an overseas divorce.

Enforcement

MBS Family Law can advise on the enforcement of foreign matrimonial orders in England and Wales.
