In an increasingly cosmopolitan world, family lawyers are often required to advise clients from a global perspective. This is especially relevant when drafting a pre-marital or post-marital agreement with an international dimension.

Alternatively, they may own assets abroad or be foreign nationals living here on an expatriate basis. This article summarises the position in England and Wales concerning marital agreements and the issues that need to be considered when drafting a marital agreement with an international perspective.
