The breakdown of a relationship is never easy, but when children are involved, the stakes are even higher. As a parent, your top priority is ensuring that your child’s needs are met and their best interests are protected.

Our team of experienced family law solicitors is here to provide you with the expert guidance, legal knowledge, and the support you need during this difficult time.
In the past, the term “sole custody” was often used to describe arrangements where one parent had primary care of a child. However, the legal landscape has since changed, and the focus is now on child arrangements orders.
These orders, are issued by the court, and specify where a child will live and how much time they will spend with each parent. While it’s always preferable for parents to come to an agreement on these matters amicably, but at Adel Jibs, we recognise that this is not always possible, as such, where disagreement arise, it is crucial to seek independent legal advice and ensure that you understand your rights, and the options available to you.
At Adel Jibs & Co Solicitors, we believe that every parent deserves access to quality legal advice, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we offer fixed-fee consultations with no obligation. During these consultations, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss your unique circumstances with one of our knowledgeable solicitors. We’ll take the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and provide you with a clear understanding of the legal avenues available to you.
If you’re seeking to become the primary carer for your child, our solicitors will work with you to pursue a “live with” child arrangements order. This type of order designates you as the parent with whom your child will reside, ensuring that you have the legal authority to make important decisions about their upbringing. However, it’s important to note that obtaining a “live with” order does not strip the other parent of their parental responsibility. They will still have the right to be involved in key aspects of your child’s life, unless exceptional circumstances dictate otherwise.
In cases where both parents wish to maintain a strong presence in their child’s life, our solicitors can help you navigate the process of obtaining a “spend time with” child arrangements order. This type of order sets out a schedule for when your child will spend time with each parent, ensuring that they maintain a meaningful relationship with both of you. We understand that agreeing on these arrangements can be challenging, especially when there are underlying tensions or conflicts.
While the court’s primary concern is always the welfare of the child, we recognised that there may be instances where a parent poses a risk to their child’s safety and well-being.
If you believe that your child is in danger of physical harm, emotional abuse, psychological abuse, sexual abuse, or financial abuse, it’s essential to take immediate action. Our solicitors have extensive experience dealing with these complex and sensitive cases. We can guide you through the process of gathering evidence, liaising with the relevant authorities, and presenting a compelling case to the court to protect your child from harm.
