Application for parental orders
I acted for a gay father in his successful application for parental orders in an international surrogacy case. I was able to persuade the judge that he was still in an ‘enduring relationship’ with his husband, despite having issued divorce and financial proceedings as well as emergency injunctions.
Cross-jurisdictional divorce
I acted for the husband in a cross jurisdictional dispute, where the wife had issued an application for a divorce in Africa and then moved to England where she issued fresh divorce proceedings The wife then stopped engaging in the African proceedings and did not tell the English Court of their existence in her Petition. The client obtained his divorce in Africa and costs, partly on an indemnity basis, when the wife’s English applications were dismissed / withdrawn.
