- International Child Abduction
At López Muelas Abogados, we specialize in international child abduction cases. We have successfully returned many children abducted by their parents to their country of residence.
We collaborate with top lawyers specializing in international child abduction, practicing in various countries around the world. Success in these types of legal proceedings is significantly greater when working with an international team of experts in this area of law.
International child abduction cases originate when a parent moves or retains their child in a country other than their usual place of residence, without the consent or authorization of the other parent, or without a court order authorizing the transfer.
Therefore, it is of utmost importance to seek the advice of a lawyer specializing in international child abduction, so that preventative measures can be taken before such an illegal removal or retention occurs. If the illegal removal or retention has already taken place, it is crucial to act quickly and obtain appropriate legal counsel to ensure the child's return to their habitual residence.
Our experience in a legal area as complex as international child abduction speaks for itself, having obtained very satisfactory results in very complex cases where the whereabouts of the children were not even known.
