What Is International Family Law?
International family law involves any family-related legal issue that includes an international element, such as marriages, divorces, or child custody disputes across different countries.
Comprehensive International Divorce Representation in Arkansas
While international law has made strides in addressing the challenges of divorce through the Hague Conference on Private International Law, navigating an international divorce can still be overwhelming without the help of an experienced attorney.
You should consider hiring an international divorce lawyer if:
You were married in another country
One spouse (or both) lives abroad
You have real estate or property in multiple countries
You have children born in different countries
These cases require a strong understanding of international laws and how different court systems operate. Laws on child custody, child support, alimony, and division of assets can vary widely depending on the country involved. Our attorneys have extensive experience delivering successful results in even the most complex international family law cases.
Division of Foreign Marital Assets in Arkansas
A common issue in international divorce is determining how to handle foreign marital assets. Foreign assets might come into play in situations where:
The marriage occurred outside the U.S.
A spouse was born abroad
A couple married abroad and later moved to the U.S.
A spouse worked and earned benefits in another country
A spouse is from a foreign country but relocated to the U.S.
Our firm can help you navigate the challenges of dividing foreign marital assets, ensuring your rights are protected across international borders.
Navigating International Alimony & Child Support in Arkansas
The U.S. legal system mandates that parents support their children, regardless of where the child lives. This includes enforcing child custody and child support obligations even when one or both parents reside in different countries. When a child moves overseas, the parent’s support obligation remains in effect.
The 2007 Hague Convention on the International Recovery of Child Support and Other Forms of Family Maintenance allows custodial parents in the U.S. to collect child support from foreign parents and vice versa. If you need to enforce or modify child support across international borders, we have the experience to help you succeed.
