Child arrangements solicitor
Help with agreeing, changing and enforcing child arrangements, so that your child keeps a good relationship with both parents.
After a separation, children have the right to contact with both parents. How that contact is arranged is recorded in the child arrangements, usually as part of the parenting plan. When parents cannot agree, or when agreements are not kept, a solicitor can help.
Agreeing child arrangements
Good arrangements are tailored to the age of the children, the distance between the homes and the working hours of both parents. We help you reach practical agreements about weekdays, weekends, holidays and special days.
When agreements are not kept
Is the other parent not keeping to the arrangements? Then we first look at whether a conversation or mediation can help. If that does not work, we can ask the court to set or enforce the arrangements.
Changing the arrangements
Children grow older, parents move house or start a new job. Arrangements that worked well a few years ago may no longer fit. We help you change them, preferably by agreement and otherwise through the court.
Contact with grandparents
Grandparents and others with a close bond with the child can also ask for contact in some situations. We are happy to look at the options with you.
Client reviews
I am very pleased with how Sophie Carrow helped with our parenting plan. The focus was on what was good for the children. Talks with the other side went smoothly but firmly, so we never had to go to court.
