About your consultant

A marriage celebrated abroad may raise questions about validity, documentation and recognition in Denmark. We help clarify the issue and prepare relevant evidence and submissions.

How we can help

  • Review of marriage certificates and the facts of the case
  • Clarifying translation or legalisation requirements
  • Assistance with the relevant Danish authority

How we begin

We offer a free initial assessment to establish the facts of your case. If you wish to proceed, we enter into a binding written agreement on the work, fees and terms before advice continues.

Which documents should I start with?

Start with any letters and decisions from the authorities and a brief timeline of the relevant events. The precise evidence required is determined by your individual case.

Can you help with an ongoing case?

Yes. We can review an ongoing case and assess the need for further evidence, a consultation response or an appeal. Always mention any deadlines when you first contact us.
