When to get in touch
You want to agree arrangements for seeing your child, change the existing schedule or discuss difficulties in putting it into practice.
How I can help
I help prepare contact proposals that take account of the family’s circumstances and the child’s welfare. I review previous arrangements, prepare applications and responses, and represent clients in proceedings.
What to prepare for your first meeting
Bring judgments or agreements, the current schedule and a factual account of the difficulties. Note issues relating to school, travel and everyday arrangements.
What should you note before discussing contact with a child?
Bring the current schedule and describe what is causing difficulties. Note school, travel and day-to-day care arrangements, together with proposals for a workable agreement.
How are legal fees agreed?
Ask about the consultation fee when booking. Before you instruct me to take further steps, we will agree the scope of assistance and the fee. Discuss the details directly with the practice.
