Introduction

Adoptions in England & Wales, the relevant legislation, regulations and procedures are complex enough but what of adoptions that have taken place overseas? Advising clients who wish to bring back a child adopted overseas to the UK can be a minefield and like many other family cases, such matters often involve high levels of stress on both the client and the lawyer. Stakes and expectations are high and there are often many loose ends to tie up.

After viewing this webinar, you will have gained a more in-depth knowledge of the issues that often arise in inter-country adoptions in order to advise clients both pre- and post-adoptions.

What You Will Learn

This webinar will cover the following:

  • The different types of inter-country adoptions
  • How these are recognised (or not) by the laws of England and Wales
  • What family law rights flow from a recognised adoption
  • What British nationality and immigration rights flow from a recognised adoption
  • Procedures to follow in order to ensure that an overseas adoption is recognised in England and Wales
  • Some solutions to try and ensure reunification between the child and the adopters in the UK when the adoption is not recognised

This webinar was recorded on 20th June 2023
