Handling Child Abductions In St. Louis, Missouri
Sometimes it's because a parent feels afraid that the divorce won't go well and that they will lose custody or somehow be denied a meaningful role in their children's lives. Sometimes it's simply because they're angry and want to hurt the other parent. Whatever the reason, it is wrong for one parent to deprive the other of their rights by taking the children away.
At The Marks Law Firm, L.L.C., we are aggressive in fighting to protect the rights of mothers and fathers who have their children abducted before, during or after a custody proceeding, whether divorce, paternity or modification. Unlike most firms, we have had real experience with child abduction cases and have had real success in expediting the safe return of abducted children from both other states, and from countries around the world.
Very few attorneys in the St. Louis, Missouri area have experience with divorce-related child abduction cases or know how to argue these issues effectively in state, federal or international courts. The Marks Law Firm, L.L.C. does. Call us today at 314-993-6300 to schedule a consultation or, contact us online and we will call or send you a response as soon as possible.
Child Abductions Across State Lines or International Borders
The Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) and the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act (PKPA) apply to cases in which children have been abducted and relocated within U.S. borders. Cross-border abductions are governed by The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction.
We have a thorough understanding of these laws and how they apply in individual cases. More importantly, we can start taking action to expedite the safe return of your children from the moment you call.
