Child Custody Services in the UK
Child custody matters can be legally complex and emotionally challenging. On the Consultant marketplace, you can quickly find qualified child custody lawyers who provide consultations and represent your interests in custody disputes, parenting plans, and other family law matters.
Our partners assist with child arrangements plans, filing applications for Child Contact Orders, and managing complex issues such as international custody disputes, supporting you at every stage.
Understanding Child Custody Law in the UK
In the UK, child custody is regulated by child arrangements agreements, which determine:
- Where the child will live
- How much time the child spends with each parent
- Who makes key decisions about the child’s upbringing
The law encourages parents to reach amicable agreements, but courts can issue legally binding orders if disputes arise. The primary consideration is the welfare of the child, including emotional stability, education, safety, and care.
Types of Custody
Standard Contact
The child primarily lives with one parent (Parent A), while the other parent (Parent B) has visitation rights.
Parent A makes daily decisions, and Parent B participates in important decisions.
Through Consultant, you can find a lawyer who ensures your parental rights are protected if access is restricted.
Shared Custody
Possible when parents agree amicably.
The child spends equal time with both parents, and both share responsibility.
Our lawyers help draft a fair child contact agreement via the platform.
Court Orders for Child Arrangements
If parents cannot agree:
- Live With Order – determines where the child lives
- Spend Time With Order – sets visitation schedules, overnight stays, and communication (phone or video calls)
- Our lawyers on Consultant assist with applications, court representation, and safeguarding parental rights.
Child Custody and Domestic Violence
In cases of domestic abuse, extra care is required:
- Apply for a Prohibitory Order to prevent contact with an abusive parent
- Obtain an Eviction Order to remove the abuser from the home
- Ensure safety-focused Child Contact Orders
International Child Custody
If one parent plans to relocate abroad, consent from the other parent or a court order is needed.
Our partners on Consultant can:
- Assist parents relocating with a child
- Prevent unlawful removal of children from the UK
- Advise on the Hague Convention and international custody agreements
We ensure your parental rights are protected, complying with UK and international law.
