United States Court decisions that enforce mahr provisions in Islamic marriage contracts, commonly rely on expert consultants in Islamic law to clarify the terms of the agreements. U.S. Judges admit parol evidence to resolve any ambiguity in the mahr agreements.

We offer expert consultations on the following:

  • International Law, including laws of the Middle East and Islamic Shari’a.
  • Recognition and Enforcement of Islamic Divorce in U.S. Courts.
  • Enforcement of Islamic Mahr agreements in U.S. Courts.
  • U.S. Immigration cases dealing with Islamic divorces.
  • Hindu Divorces in U.S. family and immigration Courts.
  • Islamic marriage contracts, child custody and inheritance.
