American Mother Secures Custody of Two Children in Korean Divorce

International divorce cases involving children require careful planning to protect both the parent’s rights and the children’s future. In this case, we represented an American mother in a divorce proceeding against her Korean spouse.

Through a court recommendation for settlement, we successfully secured sole custody of both children for our client. The decision also resolved all remaining financial issues, including past child support, future child support arrangements, and property matters, while establishing a practical framework for the father’s parenting time. By achieving a comprehensive resolution, we helped our client move forward with legal certainty and long-term stability for her family.
