Parenting Arrangements

Putting Your Children’s Wellbeing First

When parents separate, making arrangements for the care and upbringing of children is a top priority. At Honest Grace Legal, we help families navigate this sensitive process, ensuring the best interests of the children are at the heart of every decision.

Understanding Parenting Arrangements

Parenting arrangements set out how separated parents will care for their children, covering aspects like:

Living Arrangements:
  • Where the children will live and with whom.

  • How time will be shared between parents.

Parental Responsibilities:
  • Decision-making on education, healthcare, and major life events.

  • Day-to-day care and supervision.

Communication and Contact:
  • How parents will communicate regarding their children.

  • Arrangements for extended family involvement.

Courts consider the Family Law Act 1975, prioritising children’s safety, stability, and emotional wellbeing. The aim is to encourage cooperative parenting where possible while protecting children from harm.
