At Iliana Law Firm, we provide an essential service mandated by Article 6 of Iran's Civil Code, offering expert legal opinions for international family law cases involving Iranian nationals. This service is not merely beneficial; it is a legal necessity rooted in Iranian law.Article 6 of Iran's Civil Code stipulates:"Laws relating to personal status, such as marriage, divorce, capacity and inheritance, shall be observed by all Iranian subjects, even if resident abroad."This provision creates a binding obligation for courts worldwide to consider and apply Iranian personal status laws when adjudicating cases involving Iranian nationals. Our expert legal opinions serve as the critical bridge between foreign jurisdictions and the intricacies of Iranian family law.The mandatory nature of this service is underscored by several key factors:

1. Extraterritorial Application: Iranian personal status laws extend beyond national borders, applying to all Iranian citizens regardless of their country of residence. This extraterritorial reach necessitates expert interpretation and application in foreign legal proceedings.

2. Conflict of Laws: In many instances, Iranian personal status laws may conflict with local regulations. Our expert opinions are crucial in resolving these conflicts, ensuring compliance with both Iranian law and international legal principles.

3. Judicial Necessity: Foreign courts, unfamiliar with the nuances of Iranian law, require authoritative guidance to make informed decisions. Our expert opinions provide the necessary legal context and interpretation, enabling courts to fulfil their obligation to apply Iranian law correctly.

4. Protection of Legal Rights: For Iranian nationals abroad, the proper application of Iranian personal status laws is fundamental to protecting their legal rights in matters of marriage, divorce, custody, and inheritance. Our service ensures these rights are upheld in foreign jurisdictions.

5. Compliance with International Law: The principle of personal law, as embodied in Article 6, is recognised in private international law. Our expert opinions assist courts in adhering to this principle, thereby ensuring compliance with both Iranian and international legal standards.

By providing this mandatory service, Iliana Law Firm ensures that the legal rights and obligations of Iranian nationals are properly recognised and enforced in international family law proceedings. Our expert opinions are not just a valuable resource; they are an indispensable component of due process in cases falling under the purview of Article 6 of Iran's Civil Code.
