What do parents need to know about child arrangements orders?

Having passed the halfway point of Season Two of the Stewarts Divorce and Family Podcast, Episode 6 this week explores the process and best approach to child arrangements applications. A child arrangements order regulates living arrangements for a child and can be sought to regulate other important decisions regarding a child.

Tim Carpenter hosts this episode, having explored some “do’s and don’ts” for separating parents in respect of their children in Season One. This time he is joined by senior associate Rosie Stewart and associate Lydia Fowler.

Questions answered in this episode include:

• What is the process for parents to make a child arrangements order?
• What is the court’s approach to an application and what can a parent expect to achieve?
• What should a parent think about before making an application or discussing matters with a solicitor?
• What impact has the Covid-19 pandemic had on the court and children proceedings?
