The breakdown of a relationship can be very disconcerting, particularly when children are involved. Our family lawyers will guide you through this often difficult process and the legal issues involved.
We can advise you in relation to all issues concerning the arrangements for children, including which parent the children should live with and the time that should be spent with the other parent, and also in respect of Parental Responsibility. If these matters cannot be resolved by agreement, then the court has the power to make a Child Arrangements Order, which can decide these issues as well as other issues including which school to attend, which country they should live in, the children's religion and children's name. The Court will always consider the children's welfare as of paramount importance and also the “Welfare Checklist” when making any decision on these issues. We can represent you through any applications to the Court that may be necessary.
Our family team are experts in resolving disputes regarding children issues. We shall endeavour to reach a constructive resolution of any family dispute.
