Putting them first
When a family breaks down, and parents get divorced, child arrangements often become the most sensitive issue. The emotional upheaval of divorce can have a significant impact on children of any age, which is why it is important to seek the right legal advice, from solicitors who are experienced in dealing with such matters in a careful, considered way.
In the best case scenario, parents will be able to agree their child arrangements between themselves, informally, and adhere to that agreement. It does not always work this way, however, and Scotts Hall & Birtles Solicitors are on hand to help deal with any of the issues that are associated with disagreements about child arrangements.
It could be that you are unable to agree on who will be your child’s primary carer, or how to divide your child’s time between homes, in an equitable fashion. It could be that one parent wishes to take the child out of the U.K, and the other parent does not consent. It could even be that you are a Grandparent or other close relative, whose relationship with the child has been disrupted by a contentious divorce, and you are seeking to re-establish your own arrangements for time with the child. Whatever the situation, having Scotts Hall & Birtles Solicitors to advise and guide you through the legal processes needed to reach a resolution will help ease the stress for all involved.
Scotts Hall & Birtles Solicitors is a fully committed member of Resolution (www.resolution.org.uk) and endorses that organisations Code of Practice and dedication to non-confrontational dispute resolution. We also have over 40 years of experience in helping members of the Armed Forces and their families through divorce and child arrangement negotiations – something that can become highly complex when the prospect of moving postings arises.
