At Children in the Middle, we specialise in providing expert legal guidance and representation for parents involved in family court proceedings. Whether you are just entering the process or have been navigating a long-running dispute, our experienced family law barristers are here to advise you with skill and professionalism.
Family court cases often arise after separation or divorce and can involve complex decisions about your child’s life, including:
- Which parent they live with including shared care arrangements.
- When and where they spend time with each parent.
- Their schooling an education.
- Medical treatment.
- Whether they can move abroad.
The family court focuses on what’s best for your child, following the principles of the Children Act 1989. The court assesses any safeguarding concerns including domestic abuse. Its decisions can have a lasting impact on your child and your relationship with them.
Direct Access Legal Advice
We are direct access barristers. This means you can instruct us without also instructing a solicitor.
Our approach gives you direct contact with a qualified legal expert who can advise you, prepare your case, and speak for you in the family court. Our barristers understand the complexities of child arrangements and focus on protecting your child’s welfare. By working directly with a barrister, you can save time, reduce legal costs, and stay actively involved in your case from start to finish.
Our barristers offer expert guidance through:
- Legal advice tailored to your circumstances.
- Drafting of court applications and witness statements.
- Court representation at all stages of proceedings.
- Guidance on working with Cafcass, social workers, and expert witnesses.
Whether your case is heard by Magistrates or a Judge we’ll make sure you understand the process and feel confident in your decisions.
