MAKING ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE CHILDREN
Keeping the children in mind during separation and at every stage of your divorce process is vital, but agreeing child arrangements after divorce or separation can often be difficult.
Our sensitive, pragmatic and experienced professionals will help you establish practical custody and access arrangements that are clearly focused on the best interests of your children, ensuring their well-being remains the top priority in determining your family’s future. We have a wealth of experience in formalising visitation rights and drafting child residence orders.
WHEN YOU DON’T AGREE
When mutual agreement about what’s best for the children is not possible, we will take a robust approach to court proceedings in order to safeguard where and with whom your children live – and to secure any court orders that may be necessary to determine who they are allowed to see, which school they should attend, and any other issues that may affect your children.
We can also assist parents or step-parents in disputes over parental responsibility.
Our team is on your side with specialist expertise to ensure your children’s needs and best interests remain paramount throughout your separation and divorce.

Client Testimonials
I would like to mention my solicitor, Alice Leadbeatter. I have received such great, professional service from her throughout my case. Alice has been so patient and shown enormous empathy towards my situation. I feel I get good, honest advice from her and I feel I definitely have made the right choice of solicitor.
Sharon Miles
Alice Leadbeatter
Alice provided an exceptional service throughout the year and a half that I used her. She worked tirelessly on my behalf while I went through an extremely painful divorce and child separation issues. As well as her diligence and hard work, she demonstrated a compassion towards me, and a human side that showed that she truly cared about my situation. She has been exemplary in every way throughout the time that I have required her services. I recommend her to anyone, particularly anyone going through a painful legal process that requires an empathetic lawyer who treats you like a friend. She was also very good at explaining complex legal issues succinctly, which was incredibly helpful.
