Children Matters

When going through a separation, the wellbeing and happiness of any children involved is one of the most important considerations. It can be both difficult and stressful to agree on who a child should live with, child maintenance, and contact.

But we’ll guide you through the process and help you achieve amicable agreements.

We can help with child arrangement orders regarding where a child lives and how often the other parent sees the child. Plus, we can assist with prohibited steps orders (for example, preventing a child from being taken out of the country) and specific issue orders (such as which school the child attends). These are known as Section 8 orders and fall under Section 8 of the Children Act.
