Can I get child custody solicitor online advice and will it help me agree arrangements for my child?

A LegalEase Team Answered by

Yes, many family solicitors offer online consultations about child arrangements, although UK law generally uses the term “child arrangements” rather than custody. A solicitor can explain parental responsibility, help you explore an agreement with the other parent and advise whether mediation or a child arrangements order may be appropriate. If there are concerns about domestic abuse, abduction or a child’s immediate safety, mention these at once because different procedures may apply. Check that any solicitor you instruct is regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA).
