Need legal support for child custody arrangements? Our expert family law solicitors can help you secure a fair and legally binding Child Arrangement Order.
A Child Arrangement Order is a legally binding court order that determines:
🔹 Who the child will live with (previously known as a ‘Residence Order’).
🔹 How much time the child spends with each parent (previously known as a ‘Contact Order’).
🔹 Other important aspects of the child’s upbringing, such as schooling and religious upbringing.
You can apply for a Child Arrangement Order if you are:
✅ A parent, guardian, or step-parent.
✅ A person with parental responsibility for the child.
✅ A close relative (with court permission).
