Arrangements for caring for children following separation can feel all consuming. When making arrangements for children after separation, it’s important that any arrangements made are practical and in the child’s best interests.

 

Parenting arrangements can deal with:

​

• The way parents share parental responsibility, or sole parental responsibility;

• Where and who the children live with;

• Who the children spend time and communicate with and when ;

• Any other issues relevant to the children’s care such as schooling, travel, religion or medical treatment.

​

Parenting arrangements can be dealt with informally by a Parenting Plan or Consent Orders.  Otherwise they can be determined by the Court as Final Orders. 

​

Critical to every parenting agreement, whether it is being negotiated outside of court or determined by a Judge, is getting the right legal advice.

​

We provide you with quality legal advice tailored to your situation at an affordable cost.

​

Wherever possible we will assist you to negotiate parenting arrangements that can be recorded and implemented resulting in significant savings in legal costs and time for you.  If you do need to go to court to resolve your parenting arrangements, we will assist you to reach an agreement at the earliest point possible during the court process to save you as much in legal costs and time as possible.
