However, Israel is a member of the Hague Convention on International Child Abduction, which provides a structured process for securing the return of children. Our office has extensive experience handling these delicate cases. We follow a proven procedure to manage and pursue the return of children, assisting you with necessary actions in your home country and negotiating or prosecuting the case in Israel.Use this booklet to help you understand and use the Hague Convention to bring your children back home.
