    Section 8 Orders, commonly known as child arrangements orders, regulate with whom a child should live, spend time or have contact after parental separation. A solicitor helps here by drafting and applying for orders under the Children Act 1989, gathering evidence, and representing the client in a family court. They may negotiate parenting plans, finalise orders, and respond to breaches. These orders may cover residence, contact, and specific arrangements, shaping a child’s day-to-day life and long-term welfare.

    “Sarah works hard and is very good at what she does. Trusting her with the most precious gift we ever receive in this life our children. Family court is hard stressful traumatic, Sarah and Ellie her paralegal are the best team. They do everything and go above and beyond to ensure the child’s needs are paramount. Both Sarah and Ellie I would highly recommend. If I am ever unlucky enough to be taken back a 3rd time I would definitely have them both at my side.”
