How long will the Hague process take?
A. The length of the legal process for a Hague case varies. How long your case takes depends on whether your child can be located; whether any appeal is filed; and how long the court takes to decide the case, among many other factors. The Office of Children’s Issues is committed to helping you resolve your case as quickly as possible. We strongly believe that cases should be resolved in a prompt manner in order to restore the family to the same position it was in before the abduction or wrongful retention.
