I cannot recommend Michael Wozniak of Aspey, Watkins; Diesel, PLLC highly enough for his exceptional work in successfully managing my complex international Hague Convention repatriation case. Highly recommended by and coordinating seamlessly with the U.S. Department of State and Italian Central Authority, his tireless dedication, meticulous attention to detail, and efficient approach were exceptionally instrumental in securing the return of my very young child, who had been wrongfully retained by my spouse in Arizona without my consent. Coordinating with him both virtually from abroad in Italy and in person for the hearing itself in Flagstaff, Arizona, his demeanour was consistently highly professional, providing lucid and reassuring communication throughout the process. Mr. Wozniak’s expertise in navigating both international and Arizona law, with his clear, strategic guidance tailored to my personal situation and documentation, made all the difference in this rare and fact-intensive case. According to the U.S. Department of States 2024 Annual Report on International Child Abduction, approximately 1,000 Hague Convention cases are processed annually worldwide. The success rate for judicially ordered returns in favor of the left-behind parent is only 43%, according to the 2015 HCCH survey regarding the 326 return applications processed in the U.S. Against these challenging odds, Mr. Wozniak’s phenomenal legal team handled the delicate nature of the proceedings with utmost professionalism, ensuring every aspect was thoroughly addressed. Without their outstanding efforts, I firmly believe the return of my child would not have been granted. Mr. Wozniak and his team are truly remarkable, and I am deeply grateful for their life-changing support.
