The jurisdiction of the International Family Law Committee includes those family law matters that transcend national borders, including issues involving international child abduction, enforcement of child support and maintenance orders across borders, intercountry adoption, marriage and divorce issues and related immigration matters that may arise when individuals from different countries marry, and issues affecting incapacitated adults and the administration of their assets. The Committee in particular focuses on the development or enforcement of multilateral conventions governing these family law questions. The Committee includes practitioners working in the field of international family law as well and academics and policy makers interested in this emerging area of practice.
