This invention relates to the flow control of wellbores including a parent well and at least two lateral branches, each of which may have any direction (from vertical to horizontal). The flow from each lateral branch is independently controlled by a separate flow control device. The flow control devices are located within the parent well to enable an easier and efficient workover and intervention of such devices. In some embodiments, the flow control devices are located above the intersection between the parent well and the at least two lateral branches for similar reasons.
