International private law
Abduction of children/retention of children
Situations may arise in which one of the parents abducts a joint child either from Sweden to another country or from another country to Sweden. In other cases, a child may be retained in Sweden after the end of a contact meeting or retained in another country after the end of a contact meeting abroad. In the case of these matters, there is a possibility for a parent to request that the child be returned to the child’s home country, among other things pursuant to the 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. Even if the child is abducted or retained in a country that has not acceded to the Convention, there are possibilities in other ways to conduct proceedings to have the child returned to Sweden.
Attorney Ilhan Aydin has many years’ experience of matters involving abduction or retention of children. He is regularly retained in these often complex matters and, over the years, has successfully assisted many parents in getting back on their abducted or retained children.
