Q: What would you advice a father to do? He has several children that are born in the United Arab Emirates that he can see with the cooperation of the mother as long as he complies with local law. The children are born in the United Arab Emirates, are US citizens and have never been outside their country of birth. He his not allowed to take his children out of the United Arab Emirates before there 18 birthday.
He is not legally required to pay child support under US and United Arab Emirates law.
A: David's Answer: If the children reside in UAE, and have for at least the last 6 months - and there were no prior custody/visitation orders set in New York, then the father will need to file for visitation in the UAE. -- David Bliven, Bronx Child Custody attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
