Overview

Child custody lawyers: Expert legal advice

Our child law solicitors can help make the divorce easier on you and your children.

We’re here to make sure that your child’s best interests are represented throughout the process.

If you’re getting divorced, you and your partner need to agree who your children will live with. The legal language can sometime be confusing but ‘custody’, ‘residence’ and ‘living with’ all have the same meaning. 

In addition to who the child will live with, common child law issues a solicitor can help you work through include:

  • parental responsibility after divorce
  • who pays child maintenance?
  • enforcing child maintenance payments
  • where the children should go to school
  • divorce parenting plan
  • access to the children after the divorce
