Child Law
What to do when a Court Order relating to your child changes
The Court accepts that even after an Order has been made in relation to arrangements for a child’s care, matters can change and that Order may not be what is best for the child for the entirety of their childhood. As children grow what perhaps was right for them at a younger age, will not necessarily suit them as they enter their teenage years for example.
Changing Your Childs Surname Following Divorce
I have a minor son from a previous marriage and I want to change his surname, what do I do?
I want to take my minor son on holiday with me, but I am worried his father won’t consent. What do I do?
In order to take a child abroad, you must get the consent of every person with parental responsibility. Parental responsibility enables you to make important decisions about the care and welfare of your child including those relating to education, health care, religion and holidays abroad.
