Huh?For Heads of Claim, if you want something in the US, can the UK jurisdiction make it happen, or is it restricted to Country?
Thanks to all that respond
Generally, if you want something to happen in the UK, you deal with it in the UK. If you want something to happen in the US, you deal with it in the US.
This forum is for US law matters only.

According to Wikipedia: "In contract law or tort law, the term heads of loss or heads of claim refers to categories of damage that a party may incur. It uses the term 'head' in its sense of 'category'; each head of loss refers to the damages that correspond to a particular category of duty."
I've been a lawyer for nearly 20 years and in the legal profession for over 30 and have never heard this term.
With that being said, your question makes absolutely no sense. Perhaps you could clarify what you're talking about.

I was in the insurance industry for 35 years and never heard those terms used.
The terms are likely archaic in the US while still common in the UK.
A UK solicitor's website explains the terms and how they are applied:

I want something to happen in the US but I am in the UK.

What is it that you want to happen in the US? The answer to that might get you helpful comments.
I want to marry an American so I can have Dual Citizenship.

You own me a new lap top. I spewed coffee on mine because of your post.

Ok...so what does this have to do with "heads of claim"? What did you mean in your original post when you asked if "the UK jurisdiction [can] make it happen, or is it restricted to Country"? What makes you think marrying an American (whether that happens in the US or the UK) will allow you to "have [d]ual [c]itizenship"?
Do you have an American fiance(e) currently or are you planning to hire someone to play the role of "love of your life"?

Then you are asking us to help you commit a crime. I doubt that is going to happen.
And any contract that tried to do that would be voided in the US.

Nice effort, but too obvious, mate.
A troll is a very difficult role to portray.
Keep it up, kid, you might become the troll you aspire to become.
Google the term "Immigration Fraud".
OP should live under a bridge for a while...method training is a must to be a good actor!

In other words, you're seeking to commit immigration fraud. Got it.
