Children

Protecting children from the impact of a relationship breakdown is undoubtedly the main concern for any separating family. We provide sensitive and practical advice that will, in turn, help you to reach the best solution for your children.
We recognise that modern families encompass a wide variety of structures and that it's not just a parent's relationship with their child that is affected. We also act for wider family members who have a significant relationship with a child.
Whether you require advice on child arrangements, where your child should live, whether relocating in the UK or abroad, who they should spend time with, their schooling, health, religion or their financial support, our specialists can advise on all private law children matters.
Our experts include Resolution accredited children specialists who are recognised by Chambers and Legal 500 as leaders within this field. Our experts regularly contribute to developments within the law through our involvement with Resolution at a national level. We ensure that your child's welfare remains the focus of the advice you receive.
