Child Arrangements Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
They set out where your children live, how much time they spend with each parent, and how key decisions are made. They can be agreed informally or formalised by a Child Arrangements Order.
Not necessarily. Many parents resolve matters through negotiation or mediation. Court is usually a last resort, but we’ll represent you whenever needed.
Agreed cases can be resolved quickly. Court-based cases may take several months depending on complexity and safeguarding checks.
These cases need specialist guidance.

We can negotiate on your behalf or apply for:
- Child Arrangements Orders

Mr B - Crewe, UK
Gavin and his team were brilliant they took on my divorce case after I'd received a terrible service from a previous law firm and they instantly turned it around for me and got me a fantastic result they also took on my child arrangements case and the result again was outstanding and my daughter now lives with me full time I'm so grateful for their help it was the best decision I made going to see them.
Mr B - Belfast, UK
Once again Gavin was an encyclopedia of knowledge! I'm pretty convinced he knows the law and every possible angle more than people that have written the law themselves. Sound and honest advice whatever the way your case is going. I would use them again and recommend without hesitation!
