Family Law Referrals

At the International Islamic Council of Justice (IICJ), we are committed to promoting justice, fairness, and compassion in accordance with Islamic ethical principles. We recognise that family issues can be deeply personal and often require both legal expertise and moral sensitivity. Our approach ensures that clients receive guidance that respects their faith, values, and individual circumstances.

While the IICJ does not handle legal cases directly, we work in partnership with highly experienced family law lawyers who provide professional advice and representation. Our role is to carefully assess each situation and refer clients to trusted legal professionals best suited to their needs.

Please note that our partner lawyers do not accept legal aid and handle privately funded cases only. This ensures that clients receive focused, high-quality service and dedicated legal attention throughout their case.

Divorce & Separation

We refer clients to lawyers who advise on all aspects of divorce, including financial settlements, property division, and arrangements for children. These professionals aim to resolve matters amicably where possible but are fully prepared to represent clients robustly in court when required.

Financial Settlements

Our partner lawyers assist clients in achieving fair and legally sound financial agreements through negotiation, mediation, or litigation. Each referral is made to ensure clients receive expert guidance suited to their financial position.

Children Matters

We connect parents with lawyers who specialise in child arrangements (custody and contact), relocation, parental responsibility, and child maintenance. Their work prioritises the wellbeing and best interests of the children involved.

Cohabitation
& Unmarried Couples

For individuals who live together or are separating, we refer clients to lawyers who provide advice on cohabitation agreements and assist in resolving disputes following separation.

Prenuptial
& Postnuptial Agreements

We refer clients to lawyers who prepare bespoke prenuptial and postnuptial agreements designed to protect assets and establish clear expectations between spouses, whether before or after marriage.
In urgent or sensitive situations, we promptly refer individuals to lawyers who can secure non-molestation and occupation orders for protection. They also provide ongoing legal support to ensure continued safety and wellbeing.

Civil
Partnership Dissolution

We refer clients to lawyers experienced in the dissolution of civil partnerships, who offer advice on financial arrangements, child matters, and division of shared property.

All referrals made by the International Islamic Council of Justice are to privately funded lawyers. If you are seeking assistance through legal aid, we regret that we cannot arrange representation through our partner network.

For confidential advice or to request a referral, please contact the International Islamic Council of Justice. Our team will provide guidance with professionalism, discretion, and respect for your personal and religious values.
