How we can help you

Whether you need the permission of the other parent to relocate your children depends on the countries involved. What do I need to do to legally relocate my children? What if you are the parent who wishes to prevent the relocation? What preventive measures can you take? What if your children have already been removed, can you get them back? All of these scenarios need the expert and often speedy advice of an international family and child law specialist and that is where Morton Fraser comes in.
