Child Arrangement Orders & Parenting Plan
If you are a parent and are going through separation or divorce, then the wellbeing of your children will be your first priority. Our Family Law solicitors will support you in this when developing the Parenting Plan, also known as a Parental Responsibility Agreement, or a Child Arrangements Order.
We will get you a fair outcome that protects your children’s interests. At the same time, we will help you and your former partner maintain an ongoing relationship as parents wherever possible. Our team take a flexible approach that is individualised to your circumstances. We can assist in preparing a parenting agreement detailing the agreed custody or child arrangements. If you need to go to Court, we will guide you through the process. When necessary, we ensure you have robust and effective representation.
We can assist you if others have made allegations involving alcohol or substance misuse and physical abuse. We have extensive experience in dealing with specifics such as where a child should go to school, whether a child can be taken abroad, and relocation.
Further, our solicitors are experts at providing realistic advice on financial claims. These could relate to housing, school fees child maintenance (CMS/CSA). We can therefore advise on the factors the Court will take into account when establishing what is in the best interests of your children.
Just as importantly, we place a high priority on protecting your children from the emotional effects of separation or divorce. We have experience of guiding and supporting many families through this process, and we will advise you on how to minimise the trauma for them. If necessary, we can put you in touch with family experts such as therapists, counsellors and psychologists. These experts can support your children and help you maintain a strong and healthy relationship.
