Collaboration has no boundaries … or does it?
Over recent decades, the freedom to engage in relatively unrestricted international travel has led to the formation of many cross-border relationships. Often, these relationships are established between individuals from different countries and in locations where neither party is a citizen or resident.
When these relationships break down, the separation process can become significantly more complex. Collaborative Practice offers unique benefits in navigating these complexities but also presents specific legal and practical challenges.
In this presentation, collaborative lawyers from Australia, Hong Kong and Switzerland delve into these complexities within the context of handling international family law matters through the Collaborative Process. They explore key issues, including:
- The suitability of the Collaborative Process for international cases.
- Managing choice of jurisdiction.
- Addressing conflict of laws issues.
- Navigating conflicting local rules and customs, particularly given the varied approaches to the Collaborative Process across borders.
The presenters share insights from a real international collaborative family law case, offering a candid “warts and all” analysis of what strategies succeeded, what didn’t and how the collaborative team ultimately worked together to achieve a positive outcome.
