When a relationship breaks down, making arrangements for children can feel overwhelming. Our solicitors help parents and families agree practical, child-focused arrangements, making sure you understand your rights and responsibilities and that your child’s welfare remains the priority.

Children issues can often be resolved without going to court. We can guide you through the options, including negotiation, mediation and collaborative law. Where court proceedings are necessary, we will explain what to expect and support you throughout.

We work with care and compassion, keeping children’s welfare at the centre of every decision. Our role is to help you understand the options, reduce conflict where possible, and achieve a safe, workable outcome.

We can advise on:

• Prohibited step orders
• Child arrangements orders (including who a child lives with and time spent with each parent)
• Specific Issue Orders

Legal Aid may be available, depending on your circumstances.

If you’d like to talk things through, we’ll listen and give you clear advice on what happens next.
