Child Welfare Law
One of the major concerns in a relationship break down is the welfare of your children and that they continue to have the best possible upbringing.
Not only do you have to decide where your children will live, you and your ex may also need to try to agree on issues such as name change, education, religious upbringing and medical treatment.
If negotiated resolutions cannot be achieved you can apply to the Courts for a Specific Issue Order in respect of matters such as education and medical treatment or a Prohibited Steps Order to prevent your ex from taking your child abroad or changing their surname.
