Chinese Divorce Solicitor London

Chinese-Speaking Divorce and Family Solicitors

Divorce and family disputes are among the most stressful experiences anyone can face. When your family situation has an international dimension — involving China, Hong Kong, or Singapore — the legal complexity multiplies significantly. Duan & Duan UK LLP is a Chinese law firm in London with family law solicitors who provide sensitive, expert advice in English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

We understand that Chinese families often have specific cultural considerations around divorce, financial arrangements, and children's welfare that require a solicitor with genuine cross-cultural understanding — not just language skills.

International Divorce Between China and the UK

When a married couple has connections to both the UK and China — whether through nationality, residence, property, or business interests — questions of jurisdiction become critical. Which country's courts should hear the divorce? Which country's law applies to the financial settlement? How are assets in both jurisdictions divided?

Our solicitors advise on jurisdiction strategy for international divorces, including cases where proceedings could be issued in England, China, Hong Kong, or Singapore. We help clients understand the advantages and risks of each jurisdiction and act swiftly to protect their position.

Financial Settlements and Asset Division

Chinese families often hold assets across multiple jurisdictions — property in London and Beijing, business interests in Hong Kong, investments in Singapore, bank accounts in multiple countries. Achieving a fair financial settlement requires a solicitor who understands how English courts approach international asset structures and who can coordinate with lawyers in other jurisdictions.

Our team advises on divorce and financial settlements including matrimonial homes, pensions, business valuations, maintenance, and lump sum orders. We have particular experience in cases involving high-net-worth Chinese families with complex cross-border asset portfolios.

Children's Law and Custody

Disputes over children's arrangements can be particularly sensitive in international families. Our solicitors advise on children's law matters including child arrangements orders, relocation applications (where one parent wishes to move a child to China or another country), and international child abduction cases under the Hague Convention.

We ensure your voice is heard clearly in English court proceedings, even when English is not your first language.

Chinese Family Lawyer Services

Beyond divorce, our family team advises on prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, cohabitation disputes, civil partnerships, and same-sex marriage matters. For Chinese families planning ahead, we provide advice on protecting assets before marriage and structuring family wealth across jurisdictions.
