At Adel Jibs & Co Solicitors, we understand the complexity and emotional impact of parental child abduction. As experienced child abduction lawyers, we are here to provide the legal guidance and support you need during this challenging time.
Parental child abduction occurs when a parent takes a child away from the other parent without consent or legal authority. This can happen within the UK or across international borders. In the UK, this is a serious legal matter governed by the Child Abduction Act 1984 and other legal frameworks.
What is Parental Child Abduction?
The Legal Framework The Child Abduction Act 1984 criminalises taking a child under 16 out of the UK without appropriate consent. Violations can result in severe penalties, including imprisonment. Our child abduction lawyers have in-depth knowledge of this law and can provide the expert legal advice you need.
