The 4PB International Child Law group are presenting an afternoon seminar on Thursday 12th June at the Crowne Plaza London – The City (near Blackfriars Station).
Family Fortune: The Trials and Tribulations of an International Family in breakdown

- jurisdiction on divorce, (habitual residence of adults, domicile, Mittal and forum non conveniens)
- abduction, (habitual residence of children, child’s objections and joinder)
- temporary and permanent relocation, (allocation, expert evidence, security, current themes in permanent relocation)
- Reciprocal enforcement, retention of jurisdiction and mirror orders, (retention of jurisdiction clauses, mirror orders, reciprocal enforcement under BIIR and 1996 Hague Convention)
