Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Court Order to confirm my role as primary carer and the time that my husband spends with the children?

The majority of parents are able to manage their children’s care post separation without the need for a Court Order. If you have difficulties in agreeing arrangements, we would strongly recommend a referral to Mediation. There is no need for Court Orders and Court proceedings should only be issued as a last resort as they tend to be divisive, expensive, and more importantly very upsetting for the children.
