What is Private Children’s Law?
Private children’s law involves disputes between individuals, typically parents or guardians, over the upbringing of children.
The issues often dealt with under this category include:
- Child Arrangement Orders (formerly known as custody and access)
- Child Abduction
- Specific issue orders, such as determining a child’s education or religious upbringing
- Prohibited steps orders, preventing certain actions by a parent or guardian
- Non molestation and occupation orders to protect you and your children
These matters require a nuanced approach, prioritising the child’s best interests while respecting the rights and concerns of all parties involved.
