International divorce, custody or parenting concerns?
We hear you.
If you're dealing with an international divorce, overseas custody dispute, or cross-border parenting issue, Voice Lawyers are by your side. We help clients with relocation matters, urgent child abduction concerns, and international property settlements – navigating complex legal systems to protect your rights and ensure your voice is always heard.
Our international family law services
We help parents seeking to relocate overseas with their children, as well as parents who want to oppose a relocation application. Voice Lawyers can help you resolve these issues without resorting to litigation. However, in some volatile situations, litigation is the only path forward and we have experience litigating these issues in the court system.
If you're concerned that your child or children are at risk of being abducted and taken overseas, we can assist you by providing advice on how to prevent this from happening. If your child or children have already been removed from Australia without your consent, we advise that you seek advice from an international family law specialist immediately.
When considering a property settlement with an overseas partner, it’s vitally important to understand what your relationship is considered by the laws of each country. Under Australian law, a de facto couple and a married couple are afforded the same rights, but this is not always the case in overseas jurisdictions.
How Voice Lawyers ensures you are heard
Once our international family law specialists have listened closely to your story and concerns, we’ll tailor our legal approach to suit your situation. Whether that means negotiating across jurisdictions or pursuing litigation when necessary. We focus on outcomes that protect your rights and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Our practice is grounded in de-escalation, empathetic understanding, and a commitment to separating well – even when matters involve international complexity. When children are involved, we prioritise their wellbeing and ensure their best interests remain central to any cross-border parenting or relocation decisions.
We also take a holistic approach, working with a trusted network of professionals including international legal experts, financial advisors, counsellors, and business or property valuers where required – ensuring every aspect of your matter is considered and supported.
