International Family Lawyers in Canada

International family lawyers help with family law issues that involve more than one country. These matters may include international divorce, parenting disputes across borders, child relocation, child abduction, foreign marriage or divorce recognition, support enforcement, and property located outside Canada.

Use this category to find family lawyers in Canada who handle international family law matters. A lawyer may help determine which court has jurisdiction, respond to cross-border parenting disputes, deal with Hague Convention issues, or coordinate with lawyers in another country.

People often look for an international family lawyer when one parent wants to move with a child, a child has been taken to another country, spouses live in different countries, assets are located outside Canada, or a foreign divorce or order needs to be recognized.

International family law can be complex and time-sensitive, especially where children, travel, immigration, or foreign court orders are involved.
