Divorces franco-britanniques – Faire le bon choix sur où divorcer
Claire Wood (Francais)
Much of our work involves international considerations, whether our clients or their partners live abroad or hold assets abroad. Issues related to family law often arise such as immigration questions, property situated here or abroad, and succession or tax planning. We work closely with expert lawyers in our Immigration, Private Client and Real Estate teams to give comprehensive advice to clients who benefit from the international reach of this firm.
The senior lawyers in the group are all recognised leader in their fields. Jane Keir and Charlotte Bradley are members of the International Academy of Family Lawyers (IAFL). All the partners enjoy close links with foreign lawyers with particular expertise in cases involving other European countries, Dubai and the Middle East and the USA.
Our wider Private Client group provides a service that is greater than the sum of its parts. We deal with complex situations where different areas of law may combine to provide problems requiring solutions across different traditional areas of legal practice.
The group works closely together to provide you with a joined-up service that offers clients the right solutions, whether at an urgent early stage, or later on once the main settlement has been achieved. Our lawyers have the necessary experience to think across the potential range of private client issues. The result is that we will cover all the important issues with you, and introduce you to the right experts at the right time.
