Cross-Border Child Support Case Against High-Profile Business Executive

Lions Lawyers is advising and representing a mother in a complex, high-value family law dispute concerning child maintenance obligations owed by a high-net-worth former spouse.

The respondent is a prominent entrepreneur who has built a highly successful career as founder and managing partner of a leading corporation in the beverages production sector.

The proceedings concern allegations of deliberate avoidance of alimony obligations toward minor children despite the respondent’s substantial financial capacity.

The court is expected to determine child maintenance liabilities of approximately USD 100,000 in 2026. The case also involves strategic planning for enforcement of the future judgment both within Ukraine and across foreign jurisdictions where assets may be located.

This matter raises significant legal issues relating to income disclosure, asset tracing, cross-border enforcement, and the protection of children’s financial rights in high-net-worth family disputes.
