FAQs
The answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
What legal actions can I take if my child has been abducted?
Immediate legal action is crucial. Contact a specialised child abduction lawyer to discuss emergency measures and legal remedies under Scottish law and international agreements to secure your child’s safe return.
How does international child abduction differ from domestic?
International child abduction involves crossing national borders, which engages different legal frameworks like the Hague Convention, requiring specific international legal strategies. Domestic cases are handled within Scotland’s legal system, focusing on local statutes and child welfare regulations.
Can I prevent a potential child abduction?
Preventative measures can be legally arranged if there’s a threat of abduction. These include court orders and alerts to prevent passport issuance or border crossings, ensuring your child’s safety within legal parameters.
