Venue: London

Speakers: Naomi Angell, Osbornes Solicitors, Kathryn Cronin, Garden Court Chambers, Alison Stanley, Bindmans LLP

Details:

Practitioners are increasingly being asked to advise on the immigration and nationality law aspects of cases where people enter in a surrogacy agreement and a baby is born overseas, whom the parent(s) then wish to bring to the UK. This is a complex area of law involving immigration, nationality and family law and questions of ethics and conflict of laws. Naomi Angell is a specialist in children's law cases with an international and immigration aspect, a former member of the Lord Chancellor's Advisory Board on Family Law, and a member of the Law Society Family Law Committee and Children Panel. Kathryn Cronin specialises in cross-over areas where family or childcare cases involve associated immigration matters. There could be no better team to guide you through the many challenges and complexities of this growing area of practice. A unique course and not to be missed.
