Arlingsworth’s family team can advise you on all of the following areas in relation to legal matters concerning children:
- Spending time with your children following separation or divorce (including applications for child arrangement orders, prohibited steps orders and specific issue orders)
- Financial provision for children following separation or divorce
- Relocating with children (within this country or overseas)
- Abduction
- Wardship
- Jurisdiction issues
- Adoption
- Care proceedings
- Acting for grandparents
- Parental responsibility
- Cases involving domestic abuse and parental alienation
Our clients’ primary concern often revolves around the well-being of their children in the aftermath of a divorce or separation. We recognise that every child is unique and responds differently to their parents’ separation. To provide comprehensive support, we may collaborate with other specialised professionals such as child and family therapists, counsellors, mediators, and child psychologists.
We understand that what worked for one family may not be suitable for yours. Taking the time to understand your specific goals and priorities, we strive to achieve the best possible outcome for you and your family.
While court-imposed solutions may not always align with the best interests of our clients and their children, there are situations where a court process becomes necessary and unavoidable. In such cases, we call upon our vast experience and expertise to guide you through the process, ensuring you receive dedicated and robust representation throughout.
