Jurisdictional Disputes and International Family Law Issues
Interstate and international family law disputes arise with couples that either have been or are living in other states or countries and file for divorce, paternity, or custodial rights in Wisconsin. In some cases, only one party resides in Wisconsin.
Other times, people obtain judgments in other countries or states, but now live in Wisconsin and have unpaid support issues, unsatisfied money judgments, or children who have been abducted by one party and taken to California to find refuge.
