Children - Child Arrangements Orders

Deciding which parent the children should live with following a divorce or separation can be a difficult process. Decisions also need to be made in the best interests of the child or children regarding when the children will see the other parent, where the children will live, what school they will attend and other matters regarding their welfare.

Child Arrangements were introduced by the courts in 2014 and replaced what were previously known as residence and contact orders.

We can also act on behalf of grandparents seeking contact with their grandchildren.

We have solicitors who are experienced in this area of the law who will fight for you and your children and try to achieve the best outcome for them.

Our family solicitors are members of Resolution and endeavour where possible to reach an agreement amicably without the need for court proceedings however we understand that that unfortunately this is not always possible.

We can advise you in relation to all aspects of disputes regarding children including disputes regarding which parent the children should reside with and what contact they should have with each parent as well as specific issues regarding the children’s care.

We are experienced in dealing with difficult cases including cases where one parent unreasonably seeks to deny the children seeing the other parent and cases where there are allegations of domestic violence or disputes over paternity.
