We understand the distress and urgency that comes with the threat or occurrence of child abduction. Our experienced child abduction solicitors in London are dedicated to providing swift, professional guidance to protect your child’s safety and well-being within England and Wales.

Comprehensive Support for Child Abduction Cases

Our child abduction specialists offer comprehensive legal support tailored to your specific situation. We can assist you with:

  • Preventing child abduction when there is a credible risk
  • Pursuing legal action to secure your child’s return if abduction has occurred
  • Enforcing child arrangement orders and prohibited steps orders

If your child has been taken abroad, we can provide initial advice and direct you to the appropriate government-authorised firms specialising in international child abduction cases.

Parental Child Abduction in England and Wales

Parental child abduction occurs when one parent removes or retains a child without the consent of the other parent or in breach of a court order.

We can assist you in applying for court orders to prevent removal, secure your child’s return or enforce existing child arrangement orders. Our solicitors will work tirelessly to ensure your child’s safety and well-being are prioritised throughout the legal process.
