Child Contact

Singleton Day Solicitors have prepared  short video below on child contact, which is a difficult and emotional area.

The video looks at frequently asked questions on child contact matters when there is a divorce or relationship breakdown.

Child contact is a complicated area and can be exceptionally difficult, if the parties are unmarried and that the father is not on the birth certificate.

The questions in the video are various and includes how will the court make a decision regarding the child.

We hope that the video provides you with some answers though if you need help please contact our family solicitors at Singleton Day and they will be more than willing to assist you.

Separating parents receive potential new sanctions in Court shake up

There will be consultation by the Government about how the law should now be changed with the preferred option for the Courts “to work on the presumption that a child’s welfare is likely to be furthered through safe involvement with both parents”.

The move comes as evidence has come to light that one in five children lose touch with a parent upon separation and within 3 years never sees the parent that has left the family home.

The Government is also considering giving the Court’s new powers to withhold passports or driving licences and order a curfew for an offending parent.

As Solicitors at Singleton Day, we appreciate that there are many issues to resolve when separating. Each case has a different set of circumstances. Here at Singleton Day, we offer affordable fixed fee advice to suit your needs. Call us on 01942 554013 to book your free 30 minute appointment or visit our website www.singletonday.co.uk
