Welfare of the child

Child Removal & Habeas Corpus

Where a child has been taken away or kept beyond an agreed period, including international removal and mirror orders.

How We Run It

What instructing us looks like

Every matter differs. These are the steps this practice takes as a matter of course, before anything is filed.

  • Interim arrangements first. Months of an unstable arrangement become the status quo a court is reluctant to disturb.

  • Visitation drafted in specifics — dates, times, handover point — because a vague order is an unenforceable one.

  • Where a child has been removed from the jurisdiction, habeas corpus and mirror orders, moved immediately.

Bring the papers, or send them on WhatsApp. The first conversation is about what can actually be done, how long it takes, and what it will cost — before you commit to anything.
