This book navigates a way through various jurisdictional matters to which practitioners should have regard when tendering advice to family law clients. Even where a case initially appears to be straightforward, it is imperative (from a risk management perspective) to ensure that comprehensive advice has been provided.

For families, increased global mobility has potential significant consequences. This practical guide distils the key issues into accessible sections, focussing on jurisdiction, enforcement, arbitration, protective agreements and the movement of children. This is a useful reference guide for those involved in advising clients on a daily basis, for the preparation of legal submissions, for students or simply those with an interest in this fascinating area of law.
