Child Arrangements Orders

Child Arrangements Orders

A Child Arrangements Order is generally a last resort when all other options and avenues for reaching an agreement with your ex-partner in relation to your children have been exhausted.

It may be that communication between you and your ex-partner has broken down to such an extent that it is just not possible to reach an agreement between yourselves. It may be that, whilst the dialogue is still open between you and your ex-partner, you just cannot agree on the best arrangements for your children.

What can be included in a Child Arrangements Order?

Child Arrangements Orders can be used to define a number of matters relating to your child including: –

Which parent your child is to live with;
How frequently your child is to spend with the non-resident parent;
The type of direct contact your child is to have with the non-resident parent, for example, whether it is just for a couple of hours or overnight and whether it is to be supervised or unsupervised;
Whether your child is to have indirect contact with the non-resident parent, for example, by way of phone calls, Facetime, letters etc;
Arrangements for how the school holidays will be divided between the two parents and provision for any change to term time contact; and
Arrangements for taking your child on holiday either in the UK or abroad, for example, giving the other parent a defined period of notice if you wish to take your child away and providing them with details of the trip.

Maureen Sheridan

Had a great experience working with Victoria. Felt completely comfortable asking all kinds of questions and she always explained them really well.

Julia Mariani

I often get clients asking if I can assist with employment and family matters. As this is not my area of specialism I am conscious to help assist by passing them onto a trusted source who will look after the client in the best manner possible and with the same approach and ethos as myself. For employment and family matters I recommend to Consilia Legal as they contact the client promptly and provide practical no nonsense advice at a great value. I have no hesitation in recommending their services and will continue to direct my clients to them for this type of legal advice.

I recently needed legal help with a settlement agreement post a redundancy. I have never had the need to use a solicitor's services before. Going by the great reviews on Consilia I decided to give their services a go. I had the pleasure to be attended by Emma Cartlidge and she made the experience simple and easy. The offer was reviewed and amended with precision and I needn't worry about anything. I would recommend Consilia to anyone nervous about using legal services and in need of employment law advice.
