The Act Relating to Children, 2075 (2018) serves as the cornerstone of child-related legislation in Nepal. It ensures the protection, fundamental rights, welfare, and development of every child in line with the principle of the “best interest of the child.” Despite its significance, Child Law remains a highly specialized and under-practiced field due to its complexity and sensitivity.
At Legal Access Nepal, we are proud to be one of the few law firms in Nepal with a dedicated Child Law practice. We offer a comprehensive range of legal services for children and families, covering issues such as custody, support, abuse protection, guardianship, adoption, juvenile defense, child trafficking, and more. Our experienced attorneys handle each case with the compassion, discretion, and legal precision it deserves.
When parents separate or divorce, determining who gets custody of the child is often one of the most emotionally charged legal battles.
Following the establishment of custody, determining the financial support necessary for a child’s upbringing becomes vital.
We offer full-spectrum legal services for both domestic and international adoptions as well as legal guardianship matters.
When a minor is accused of committing a crime, they are subject to special procedures under Nepali law.
We offer urgent and sensitive legal services to protect children from abuse, violence, and neglect.
Child abduction and trafficking are serious crimes with international implications.
We also address legal violations related to a child’s right to education, including unlawful expulsions, discrimination, or denial of enrollment.
Ongoing disputes among separated parents or guardians over custody, visitation, financial support, or parenting responsibilities are common.
