Spending Time with your Children

Equilaw • Dec 11, 2022

Spending Time with your Children over Christmas

Are you experiencing difficulties with parenting arrangements? Every family is different and there are no “automatic” arrangements for the care and custody of children following separation. At the time of separation, one of the major concerns for parents is the withholding of children from the other parent.

 This can cause anxiety and lead to a complete deterioration of the co-parenting relationship. Ideally parents can share responsibility and have a say in major long term decisions in the best interests of the children. Spending time and parental responsibility issues can be determined by an agreement between the parents known as a “parenting plan” or, as is advisable in many cases, can be formalised by way of “consent orders”.

 If an agreement cannot be reached, an application to the Court may be required. The court will consider the arrangements that suit the best interests of the child. Equilaw Solicitors can guide you through the parenting arrangements process. For more information, please call us on 02 6542 5566.
