International Divorce & Family Law: China

If you are an expatriate living in China then you may find that you fall into a legal vacuum. China may refuse to deal with your matter on the basis you are not a Chinese national. The divorce rate has been going up. Traditionalists in China say this is because of the country’s transformation from a rural to an urban society. In the not so distant past divorce was considered a life-long stigma but now this is less the case. Children issues give rise to particular difficulties as the legal system is not well adjusted to solving these.

We are specialist international divorce lawyers and family solicitors and we have advised numerous clients who are either UK-based but originate from China, or are living outside of the UK but have a connection with England or Wales.

Sep 2021   Anu Vidyarthi

Henry took the time to go through all the details of my separation thoroughly. He was very clear on what my options were and what I needed to do to have a seamless agreement with my ex. Thank you for all your help!

Aug 2021   Sandeep Cina

Talitha provided a free consultation and could not have been more helpful. Her guidance was pragmatic and she managed my expectations both on costs and the process. Talitha offered practical advice to find a solution that could avoid going to court.

Aug 2021   Richard Doyle

I had an initial chat with Kevin, the senior associate. Extra ordinary talent to convince parties, very intelligent and I was wonderstuck at his brilliant knowledge of family law.

Aug 2021   Mrs. M. Merchant

I have nothing but positive feedback about this firm... Lorraine Imms from Brookman was absolutely brilliant... Her knowledge is exceptional and she has kept me informed through every step... I'd give ten stars if I could!

Jun 2021   Martin Byrne

Myself and my mother had a free video consultation with Mr. Brookman regarding my mother's divorce and were both impressed with his knowledge on divorce matters, professionalism and understanding. Henry then followed up with us with a clear plan of what he suggests we do...

Very swift response and concise information. I had a very engaging free consultation with Mr Brookman initially which was informative and professional.

I would like to say my experience with Mr Brookman was an extremely positive experience. His knowledge, advice and compassion put me very much at ease and made a very difficult situation much more bearable.

Very helpful, and honest about my situation even though it wasn’t business for them at this time. Would recommend.
