Whether you are married or not, when a relationship breaks down the first people to consider are your children. We understand the importance of helping you resolve potential or actual disputes as quickly and amicably as possible acknowledging your need to maintain a relationship as parents.
We will discuss with you the options available to help resolve any disagreements, including collaborative law, mediation and the court process.
We will work with you to put in place arrangements for the future to ensure that your family operates successfully, albeit in a different form guiding you through issues such as:
- With whom your children will live (residence or shared residence)
- What contact your children will have with each of you (contact)
- Arrangements for child support and financial provision
- Specific issues such as where the children will go to school, what medical treatment they can have and other important decision
- What will happen if one of you wants to take the children to live abroad permanently
- Parental responsibility for unmarried fathers
- Paternity issues
- Grandparents' rights
