Parental Rights Attorney New York

International Parents Rights Lawyer

Parental rights and responsibilities extend beyond national borders.

If you are living abroad and seeking to assert or recover your custody rights regarding a child living in New York or another state, there are laws in place that can be used to recover your child. Those same laws can be used to prevent the removal of a child from the United States to another country in violation of the custody rights of a parent living in the U.S.

I represent clients in international child custody and visitation matters. My work includes:

  • Recovering custody of children who have been brought to the U.S. in violation of custody orders
  • Protecting the custody rights of a parent and child living in the U.S.
  • Asserting visitation rights with a child living in the U.S. for parents who live abroad

Experienced Hague Convention and Parental Rights Attorney

I have practiced as a family law attorney of client's existing site for over 20 years. During that time, I have represented a number of clients in matters involving international custody, child abduction and Hague Convention cases. My firm represents parents and works with family law attorneys from other nations in matters involving parental rights.

Elizabeth

Upon interviewing Jonathan Katz, I decided to retain him because I was impressed with his approach to divorce: he advocated communication, conflict reduction, and efficiency, toward reducing the stress and monetary expense already inherent to any legal action.

When my case took unexpected turns, Jonathan was agile and effective in his response, even when the straightforward divorce turned into an international custody battle that went to federal court. Responsive at every turn, efficient, and wise in his counsel, Mr. Katz's legal services gave me real value for my investment.

Being a single mom, I had enough stress in my life. I had no idea how to go about protecting my self. My daughters were my priority. Jon walked me through the process. He turned a difficult time into a workable solution.

Jon's integrity towards his clients is what makes him a standout attorney. He makes it a priority to know whats important to you. You're not just a number. He is up front with you right from the start. He will not string you along just for his financial benefit. He is only willing to settle the case if thats truly what you want. Anytime I called him I received a call back from him that day. Not someone else in the office. He is an attorney that has a passion for whats important to his clients.
