LEGALLYBETTER ON CHILDREN'S LAW

Find a Family Law Solicitor
- Legislation here relates to proceedings such as applications for care orders by Local Authority social services departments, private law Children Act proceedings including applications concerning the place of residence of or contact with children, and adoption.
- Elsewhere the law focuses on the rights of the children, more so than those of the parent. How best to look after any children in a relationship break-up, should be an over-riding priority for couples going their separate ways.
- If you were married, each party has parental responsibility and so is entitled to certain things, like knowing where the child is living. They can also apply to the court over issues of contact or residence for their children.
